| aamit1 | acidrain: here's the contents of the mysite file, which is the only file in the sites-enabled folder (because of the instructions on the netbeans site) http://paste.ubuntu.com/705691/ | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| rapage | it's on details | 00:00 |
| rapage | on the 2nd tab | 00:00 |
| frank1234 | oh...well then i dont see what your problem is...its there... | 00:00 |
| rapage | where you found it under what caracter type | 00:01 |
| aamit1 | acidrain: when I try to save that file I get the following warnings output to terminal though - http://paste.ubuntu.com/705693/ | 00:01 |
| aamit1 | edbian: do those errors make any sense to you? http://paste.ubuntu.com/705693/ | 00:01 |
| frank1234 | and i know its on the second tab...im asking which code, the c octal escaped utf-8? | 00:01 |
| rapage | oh your said common I'm sorry | 00:01 |
| frank1234 | yeah common | 00:01 |
| acidrain | aamit1: My apache2 logs seem to show full paths in /var/log/apache2/error.log, yours are looking in /, so that's where I'd focus my attention | 00:01 |
| rapage | what code | 00:02 |
| rapage | the one that goes like U + 1122 | 00:02 |
| fsck | hello folks | 00:02 |
| aamit1 | acidrain: could you paste your error log so I can see the difference? | 00:03 |
| Shaba1 | goin to my bois' site to see if this is a continuing problem. brb | 00:03 |
| rapage | I was on the common script too but didn't find it | 00:03 |
| acidrain | [Mon Oct 10 11:34:40 2011] [error] [client 10.22.45.34] File does not exist: /va r/www/collectorlist/aspmkrlogo6.png, referer: http://infosys2.<REMOVED>/collecto rlist/cla_login.php | 00:03 |
| acidrain | there's an example row with the guilty domain removed | 00:04 |
| frank1234 | rapage: i see it, i scrolled down a tiny bit...hmm...well i can't magically fly it to your computer | 00:04 |
| ichbinder | edbian: huh, what was that related to? | 00:04 |
| aamit1 | acidrain: just wondering because I also get this error when I open the error.log file using gksudo gedit - http://paste.ubuntu.com/705695/ - is that error just related to gedit having a problem? | 00:04 |
| ichbinder | DustyMonk: same to you? I never said anything against linux, did I? | 00:05 |
| edbian | ichbinder: sorry? | 00:05 |
| ichbinder | [01:32:26] <edbian> ichbinder: can't do anything? | 00:05 |
| ichbinder | [01:32:32] <edbian> ichbinder: It can do lots of things! | 00:05 |
| acidrain | I wouldn't worry about the gtk errors, those are related to the windowing system I believe. | 00:05 |
| edbian | ichbinder: linux can do lots of things!! | 00:06 |
| ichbinder | edbian: I never said anything else, did I/ | 00:06 |
| ichbinder | ? | 00:06 |
| aamit1 | acidrain: because I've already modified some of these files from some things I googled earlier, is there anyway to remove the lamp packages and do a clean reinstall? | 00:06 |
| edbian | aamit1: What do you have in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled ? | 00:06 |
| aamit1 | edbain: mysite | 00:06 |
| aamit1 | edbian: mysite | 00:06 |
| fsck | what? | 00:06 |
| ichbinder | edbian: I asked about plugins for eog to view image coordinates | 00:06 |
| edbian | <ichiromenu> edbian--is that why linux can't do anything? | 00:06 |
| acidrain | aamit1: have you been restarting the apache2 server after modifying the configs? I didn't see restarts in the log | 00:06 |
| edbian | aamit1: what's mysite look like ? What is the DocumentRoot ? | 00:07 |
| rapage | ½ | 00:07 |
| rapage | I found it too thanks frank1234 | 00:07 |
| aamit1 | acidrain: I ran this command - 'sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload' | 00:07 |
| edbian | 1/2 | 00:07 |
| edbian | aamit1: I think you wanna do restart | 00:08 |
| edbian | not reload | 00:08 |
| rapage | those are 3 caracters | 00:08 |
| edbian | :( | 00:08 |
| frank1234 | alright...your welcome...weblive edubuntu is an awesome thing btw:D | 00:08 |
| aamit1 | edbian: did restart and still 403 error - the contents of mysite are - http://paste.ubuntu.com/705699/ | 00:09 |
| acidrain | reload should re-read the config file, but yeah, a full restart is probably better since it isn't working :( | 00:09 |
| aamit1 | acidrain: ran /etc/init.d/apache2 restart and still same problem :( | 00:10 |
| edbian | aamit1: do you have a folder public_html in your home folder? What are the permissions on that folder? That is the folder that needs things in it, not /var/www/ cause this file points to that folder | 00:10 |
| aamit1 | acidrain: any way to do a clean reinstall | 00:10 |
| edbian | aamit1: a reinstall is not necessary, I just found the problem (one of them at least :) ) | 00:10 |
| jareyes | I have some grammar issues redacting a text, what channel you recommend me to get help? | 00:10 |
| aamit1 | edbian: let me check - I know I created the public_html folder but I dont know permissions - what was command to check it again? | 00:11 |
| edbian | aamit1: ls -l | 00:11 |
| acidrain | of course, but a typical uininstall won't remove your config files. | 00:11 |
| dorkmafia1 | anyone use eclipse on ubuntu? | 00:11 |
| acidrain | better to figure out what went wrong | 00:11 |
| edbian | acidrain: agree | 00:11 |
| edbian | aamit1: much better to figure out the problem :) | 00:11 |
| edbian | aamit1: ls -l /path/to/folder | 00:12 |
| aamit1 | edbian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/705705/ | 00:12 |
| Dionix | so why is it, that when i boot my live usb stick, x works fine, but when i install to hard disk, after GDM starts i get a black screen and i can't even ctrl alt f2 to fix it | 00:12 |
| frank1234 | dorkmafia1: i used it a bit for learning a little bit of android development...im not an expert on it though | 00:12 |
| edbian | aamit1: could I see ls -la on that folder? so that I can see . in that folder which is that folder? ls -la /home/you/public_html (but I can see already we're missing x on index.html | 00:12 |
| dorkmafia1 | cool i'm installing it now .. i'm also going to give fb4linux a try | 00:13 |
| edbian | aamit1: although I don't think we need x | 00:13 |
| aamit1 | edbian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/705706/ | 00:13 |
| edbian | aamit1: mmmm again the permissions look fine... | 00:14 |
| edbian | aamit1: what's in index.html ? | 00:14 |
| acidrain | Ugh. Dist-upgrade finished, and it's worse. Now I'm getting kernel panic not syncing | 00:15 |
| acidrain | I'm going home and I'm going to remove in and work on it some more | 00:15 |
| broo | aamit1, edbian you need to look at the permissions on the whole path leading there, if that home directory isn't readable by the user apache is running as it won't matter what the perms on public_html are | 00:16 |
| aamit1 | edbian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/705707/ - I'm going to replace that with some plain html and see what happens. | 00:16 |
| aamit1 | broo: good point...so check permissions on home? | 00:16 |
| edbian | broo: well his /home is not readable... | 00:16 |
| edbian | aamit1: what is this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/705707/ ? | 00:16 |
| edbian | aamit1: I can see permissions on /home are no good (not readable by anybody but you | 00:17 |
| dannyraymilligan | can anyone give me help with the executable bit and running programs in Wine? | 00:18 |
| edbian | dannyraymilligan: sure, ask a more specific question | 00:18 |
| aamit1 | edbian: that was what was in public_html/index.html but I replaced that with some plain html | 00:18 |
| edbian | aamit1: good move | 00:18 |
| zeroedout | ....are you trying to run a .exe file with wine? | 00:18 |
| edbian | aamit1: It needs to be html ;) | 00:18 |
| dannyraymilligan | Well, I love my recording studio program in Windows, n-track studio. I'm trying to install it in Wine, but it refuses to let me make it executable | 00:18 |
| aamit1 | edbian: still errors but I thought I could put some php in that? anyway, how do I fix permissions to my /home? | 00:19 |
| edbian | dannyraymilligan: How are you trying to make it executable (I don't think it needs to be, only wine does) | 00:19 |
| dannyraymilligan | I click the little option, and it turns it off | 00:19 |
| braiam | dannyraymilligan, chmod +x on a linux partition | 00:19 |
| edbian | aamit1: php in there would be fine. sudo chmod 755 /home | 00:19 |
| edbian | aamit1: sudo chown root:root /home | 00:19 |
| edbian | aamit1: Your /home had strange permissions | 00:20 |
| soreau | dannyraymilligan: Where is the file? | 00:20 |
| edbian | dannyraymilligan: what option? | 00:20 |
| dannyraymilligan | it's in my microsoft partition | 00:20 |
| aamit1 | edbian: ran that and restarted server, still 403 going to localhost | 00:20 |
| dannyraymilligan | should I copy it to linux and try executing? | 00:20 |
| edbian | aamit1: can I see ls -la /home/you/public_html ? | 00:20 |
| soreau | edbian: Why on earth are you telling him to set his home ownership to root? | 00:20 |
| edbian | soreau: the /home not /home/him | 00:21 |
| edbian | soreau: What should it be? | 00:21 |
| soreau | edbian: Oh, I thought you had a -R in there | 00:21 |
| edbian | soreau: nope :) I almost put it in though! stopped myself :P | 00:21 |
| aamit1 | edbian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/705710/ | 00:22 |
| aamit1 | edbian: versus http://paste.ubuntu.com/705706/what they used to be | 00:22 |
| edbian | aamit1: chmod's didn't run sudo chmod 755 /home | 00:22 |
| broo | saw something like that happen on a database update put a wildcard in the wrong spot and changed every records id number to the same thing | 00:22 |
| dannyraymilligan | I right click on proggie, open properties, click permissions tab, and then select ex4ecute file as program, it comes on for just a sec, then turns it off again | 00:22 |
| dannyraymilligan | when I try to open it in Wine, it says it must be set to executable | 00:23 |
| edbian | aamit1: no change between those two pastebins | 00:23 |
| soreau | dannyraymilligan: You can't run .exe programs from your windows partition with wine | 00:23 |
| dannyraymilligan | so copy it to my linux then? | 00:23 |
| dannyraymilligan | okay, brb | 00:23 |
| edbian | dannyraymilligan: yeah | 00:23 |
| soreau | dannyraymilligan: You have to install the program into the wine environment with wine | 00:23 |
| dannyraymilligan | lol, okay that fixed it | 00:23 |
| aamit1 | edbian: ran what yoy asked, pastes still look the same | 00:24 |
| aamit1 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/705711/ | 00:24 |
| dannyraymilligan | I didn't know it auto-blocks anything in Windows from running, lol | 00:24 |
| edbian | aamit1: what if you do chmod 755 /home ? | 00:24 |
| dannyraymilligan | if I can get this to run right in Linux, I'm deleting my Windows, lol | 00:24 |
| edbian | aamit1: then does it change (it's owned by you so maybe the sudo is misplaced) | 00:24 |
| edbian | dannyraymilligan: linux rocks | 00:24 |
| dannyraymilligan | This is the only thing that stopped me from going linux-only years ago, my recording studio wouldn't run in it | 00:25 |
| aamit1 | edbian: won't let me run the command without sudo | 00:25 |
| edbian | aamit1: are you ashwin ?? | 00:25 |
| dannyraymilligan | okay, be back later, will tell you all how it worked out | 00:25 |
| soreau | dannyraymilligan: You might try looking into ardour and hydrogen | 00:25 |
| dannyraymilligan | thanks edbian | 00:25 |
| edbian | dannyraymilligan: sure | 00:25 |
| w30 | rapage, hold down the shift and control key and type u00bd | 00:25 |

| DDR | Hello, all. I'm having a few problems with Ubuntu, which I downloaded and installed a few days ago on my laptop. (It's an Acer Aspire 7735Z.) I took the 'alternate' 64-bit version from the website, since the default wouldn't load all the way. I've installed KDE, since I couldn't figure out how to make Gnome to give me an old-fashioned task bar. In no particular order: Wireless doesn't... | 00:28 |
| DDR | ...connect on start. Sound volume and screen brightness are unadjustable. In KDE: Startup screen crashed on login, but can continue anyway. Interior window theme is ugly. Exterior window theme tends to experience graphical corruption in the form of white boxes and textbits. Trackpad toggle button won't turn trackpad back on, though graphic displays in Gnome. Numlock is off by default, and... | 00:28 |
| DDR | ...the wrong language is used in the initial login screen. Laptop won't 'hibernate', instead just locking screen. Battery won't recharge, though I suspect hardware fault. Trackpad won't scroll when I drag my finger along the right, even though I've set it to do that in the options. OpenGL games are painfully slow. (One is getting twice the framerate on a first-gen iPhone.) Uhm... I think... | 00:28 |
| DDR | ...that's all. Does anyone have any advice? :( | 00:28 |
| FloodBot1 | DDR: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:28 |
| Nullifi3d | is it normal to have lots of apache2 processes running at the same time? | 00:28 |
| edbian | aamit1: cat /var/log/apache2/error.log (pastebin that again :) ) we might have to look at / to see if those permissions are silly too :) that was the original error | 00:29 |
| edbian | Nullifi3d: yes | 00:29 |
| aamit1 | edbian: see the same drwxr-xr-x string each time...ok let me do that | 00:29 |
| Nullifi3d | its one process per request isnt it? | 00:29 |
| miki | ½ | 00:30 |
| aamit1 | edbian: outputted to gksudo gedit instead of cat but - http://paste.ubuntu.com/705712/ | 00:30 |
| edbian | aamit1: sure :) | 00:30 |
| edbian | aamit1: can you show me ls -la / | 00:30 |
| aamit1 | edbian: just on my root directory? | 00:30 |
| === fish is now known as Guest14102 | ||
| edbian | aamit1: Yeah. I think that folder is the problem | 00:31 |
| simpleblue | does anyone have a clue as to whats going on with the countdown website? http://thisisthecountdown.com/ | 00:31 |
| edbian | aamit1: ur permissions on /home were screwy. have you been changing them? | 00:31 |
| jdcard | Is there a way to automatically rename files based upon the output of the "file" utility? | 00:31 |
| Guest14102 | hello,i am fish | 00:31 |
| broo | DDR: not sure on almost all of it, but it sounds like your not using the right driver for your video card | 00:31 |
| edbian | simpleblue: It's working for me. 1 day 04 hours... | 00:31 |
| simpleblue | apparently this is not to do with the launch of 11.10 though edbian | 00:32 |
| edbian | Guest14102: hello fish | 00:32 |
| aamit1 | edbian: no...not that I know off. just installed ubuntu on some old laptop and trying to do some php | 00:32 |
| edbian | simpleblue: I disagree | 00:32 |
| edbian | aamit1: ok :) what is ls -la / ? | 00:32 |
| simpleblue | but its a day off at best edbian | 00:32 |
| aamit1 | edbian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/705714/ | 00:32 |
| simpleblue | and there's this post that gives more clues: http://askubuntu.com/questions/64284...-count-down-to | 00:32 |
| Guest14102 | people form every corner of the world? | 00:33 |
| aamit1 | edbian: what should the permission string read? | 00:33 |
| edbian | aamit1: it looks fine! I'm confused :( | 00:33 |
| edbian | aamit1: as long as there is a r in the last triple on . it's fine | 00:33 |
| edbian | which there is | 00:33 |
| edbian | so it's fine | 00:33 |
| simpleblue | the world is going to end? o.o | 00:33 |
| qin | jdcard: Similar to: touch File_named_`date +%b_%d` | 00:34 |
| qin | jdcard: What to you want to do? | 00:34 |
| edbian | simpleblue: I hope not | 00:34 |
| beta0x64 | simpleblue, yes. | 00:34 |
| simpleblue | :o | 00:34 |
| beta0x64 | idk when | 00:34 |
| beta0x64 | but definitely | 00:34 |
| aamit1 | edbian: since I didn't install anything on this laptop yet and not really personalized it, would it make sense to just reinstall ubuntu and try it again - I googled this error and made some changes (not to permissions I'm pretty sure) but I might have messed some settings up | 00:34 |
| simpleblue | hopefully on in a day and 4 hours | 00:35 |
| beta0x64 | yea hopefully it's on a monday | 00:35 |
| aamit1 | edbian: or is there some way to clean format the computer? | 00:35 |
| simpleblue | should say not* | 00:35 |
| edbian | aamit1: It's worth a shot I guess | 00:35 |
| simpleblue | lol | 00:35 |
| edbian | aamit1: If it were me I'd keep fudging to I figure it out | 00:35 |
| aamit1 | edbian: ok thanks a TON for all your help - I'll keep working on it for another few days and then see. | 00:35 |
| simpleblue | yet nobody knows :/ | 00:35 |
| edbian | aamit1: good luck! :D | 00:36 |
| broo | edbian, aamit1 so /home is good, how about /home/<username> | 00:36 |
| edbian | aamit1: try changing document root to /var/www/ instead of /home/you/something | 00:36 |
| jdcard | Have a collection of files from a corrupted drive that are valid data files of various types but all got renamed with a *.JPG extension. Want to rename them to something sensible based on the output of "file". | 00:36 |
| edbian | broo: That was already checked / changed by me I think | 00:36 |
| aamit1 | edbian: it has been changed already | 00:36 |
| edbian | broo: unless there is.... user error | 00:36 |
| aamit1 | edbian: oh wait lemme try I thought you meant the other way around | 00:36 |
| edbian | aamit1: yeah, the first way around :) | 00:36 |
| aamit1 | edbain: I'm just going to reset the apache to read the default file instead of the mysite file | 00:37 |
| edbian | aamit1: good plan | 00:37 |
| RobbieCrash | man, why didn't anyone ever mention that doing cp /dir/[a-l]* /dir2 -rv was valid... Who knew cp would accept ranges?! | 00:38 |
| edbian | cp is great :) | 00:38 |
| aamit1 | broo: here are permissions on home/usr http://paste.ubuntu.com/705716/ | 00:38 |
| edbian | aamit1: the . is rwx not rwxr-xr-x which is wrong and is causing a problem | 00:39 |
| broo | RobbieCrash: it's not cp, it's your shell that expanded it for cp | 00:39 |
| edbian | aamit1: we need to change this by running 755 /home/ashwin | 00:39 |
| edbian | aamit1: that is chmod 755 /home/ashwin | 00:39 |
| aamit1 | edbian: when I switched it back to the default folder...it works | 00:39 |
| edbian | aamit1: the permissions are correct on /var/www/ | 00:40 |
| edbian | aamit1: they're wrong on /home/ashwin/public_html (ashwin is wrong) | 00:40 |
| DJ | hello! i can't donwload add-cd for ubuntu. | 00:40 |
| aamit1 | edbian: yeah that makes sense now | 00:40 |
| edbian | aamit1: yep :) | 00:40 |
| qin | jdcard: You should /join #bash for most foo proof solution. | 00:40 |
| edbian | aamit1: problem solved! no reinstall necessary | 00:40 |
| jdcard | qin: Thanks! | 00:40 |
| RobbieCrash | broo whatever it is, it's awesome! | 00:41 |
| edwardthefma | so who playes mine craft XD | 00:41 |

| simpleblue | Maybe unbuntu is going to be used in space? | 00:42 |
| edbian | simpleblue: in space? almost definitely | 00:42 |
| simpleblue | it would have to be really really stable though | 00:42 |
| aamit1 | edbian: so I ran the chmod 755 command and switched the site back to mysite (at /home/ashwin/public_html) and now it works | 00:43 |
| simpleblue | the clues point to this site: http://worldspaceagency.org/ | 00:43 |
| edbian | aamit1: yay :) everything is understood ? | 00:43 |
| qin | jdcard: This fail to whites: for i in *; do filetype=$(file -b $i | cut -f 1 -d " ") ; echo $i $filetype; done | 00:43 |
| Tech-Kyle1 | Hey guys i'm new to ubuntu i'm using 10.0.4 lts and i'm on an ibook g4. i'm trying to install flash and haven't been able to get it to work | 00:43 |
| aamit1 | edbian: so are these changes I did to the permissions permanent? | 00:43 |
| edbian | aamit1: yes | 00:43 |
| edbian | aamit1: well, until you change them | 00:43 |
| Tech-Kyle1 | i'm on the OCCUPY PHILLY tech team and i'm working on a computer trying to make it a public pc | 00:43 |
| aamit1 | edbian: so any idea why the permissions were so out of wack in the first place? | 00:43 |
| edbian | aamit1: the only strange one was /home I have no idea why. Maybe a typo, maybe a miscommunication | 00:44 |
| aamit1 | edbian: and now the sample netbeans projects works too! so in general I want all my permissions strings to end with what characters? | 00:44 |
| === m4v is now known as m4vE | ||
| broo | Tech-Kyle1: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/flash | 00:45 |
| edbian | aamit1: an r-x at the end (means anybody can read and execute these things) | 00:45 |
| edbian | aamit1: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/filepermissions.html | 00:45 |
| Tech-Kyle1 | do you know if that will work with the ibook g4? someone donated it to us and it needs to be able to upload to youtube and watch livestreams | 00:46 |
| airtonix | Tech-Kyle1: you mean watch youtube videos | 00:46 |
| === m4vE is now known as m4v | ||
| broo | aamit1: for /home/ashwin you might want to remove the r for o, so do 751 instead of 755, should still allow access to public_html, but reduces what people can "see" in your home directory | 00:46 |
| aamit1 | edbian: thanks! I'll read that later but I'm actually going to get off right now but thanks again for all your help! | 00:47 |
| edbian | aamit1: sure ! :D | 00:47 |
| aamit1 | broo: thanks to you too! let me just run that command though and see if it still works | 00:47 |
| broo | Tech-Kyle1: g4, I take it that's a ppc chip not intel, then no that flash won't work, you'd need to try one of the free flash options that could be complied for the g4 | 00:47 |
| Tech-Kyle1 | it's a mac ibook g4 | 00:48 |
| airtonix | Tech-Kyle1: therefore a ppc chipset | 00:48 |
| Tech-Kyle1 | ok i thought that was what you meant. do you have any idea where i would find something that could make this work? | 00:48 |
| Tech-Kyle1 | i searched on google but i couldn't understand much of it. | 00:48 |
| aamit1 | broo: ran chmod 751 /home/ashwin and the files still work but all the permissions string still end in r-x | 00:49 |
| rapage | w30, again? | 00:49 |
| broo | Tech-Kyle1: do an apt-cache search flash and see what shows up, you should be able to use apt to install one of the alternatives | 00:49 |
| jdcard | qin: Yeah, looks like I'll have to do some sort of scripting to make it work. I was hoping it was a problem that someone else has already conquered and I could grab a quick utility or script to make it easy. Thanks! | 00:50 |
| aamit1 | broo: I'm off now though but thanks! | 00:50 |
| aamit1 | bye guys | 00:50 |
| overdub | aamit1, that's because the chmod only works on the first level and needs the -R switch to work recursively | 00:50 |
| overdub | or is that chown, now i must check man chmod | 00:51 |
| qin | jdcard: improved version... | 00:51 |
| overdub | use find with chmod and chown since that give you fine control over which files get changed | 00:52 |
| overclucker | find . -type d -exec chmod 644 {} \; | 00:53 |
| qin | jdcard: You need to create appropirate ~/resqued directories: mkdir ~/resqued; for i in *; do filetype=$(file -b "$i" | cut -f 1 -d " ") ; echo cp $i ~/resqued/$filetype; done | 00:53 |
| overclucker | or -type f | 00:54 |
| overdub | then none of your directories will have the executable bit set, and you won't be able to see your files | 00:54 |
| overdub | ah yes, type -f | 00:54 |

| BlueProtoman | rypervenche: Just my username. No input is accepted. I can access the shell if I boot in recovery, though. | 01:40 |
| SejmL | Is there any way to change the input jack to an output jack? | 01:41 |

| diego_ | i need to know the epson stylus tx130 ink level | 02:24 |
| Steyr | Ubuntu installs without a hitch, but when I try to boot up it gives me a grub prompt. | 02:24 |
| Steyr | Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? | 02:25 |
| jtomasrl_ | usr13: ty ill try | 02:25 |
| Steyr | as a sidenote, 10.04 will install just fine... this seems to only be an issue with 11.04 | 02:25 |
| el_seano | Natty uses grub 1.99, right? | 02:26 |
| Steyr | It does to boot from the live usb, but from what I gather it installs grub 2 | 02:26 |
| Steyr | The live usb works perfectly, by the way. I'm using it now. | 02:27 |
| Ttech | 1.9* is 2 I believe. | 02:27 |
| Steyr | This is also after I tried installing 10.04 and then updating (which failed) and then erased and reinstalled 11.04 | 02:28 |
| Steyr | when i tried to install it the first time (on top of win 7) grub didn't even start, it just booted straight to windows. | 02:29 |
| Steyr | And I did install ubuntu last... which leads me to believe that maybe it's not writing to the boot sector at all... | 02:30 |

| mmoebius | glitchd: They are almost all the same and one as good as another. Backends are *always* wodim or (older) cdrecord . It's just the UI. And also, the all use mkisofs or its librasries. No "better" sorry. | 02:51 |

| mmoebius | ryannathans: If the ubuntu kernel is to b0rked for you, roll your own. If installing from an USB key, you should be abel to supply your own kernel, modules etc. with a little work | 02:52 |
| Milossh | try rejoining this channe; | 02:52 |
| Milossh | channel | 02:52 |
| whippersnapper | Mneumonic: Oh, I see. I used Gnome 3 in Fedora 15 and it was okay but I think that 3.2 is better... | 02:52 |
| Mneumonic | 3.2 would be in the nightly right | 02:52 |
| whippersnapper | Mneumonic: Yes, it would | 02:52 |
| glitchd | mmoebius, thx for the info | 02:53 |

| whippersnapper | Mneumonic: Err... software center (as virtualbox doesn't support Gnome 3, AFAIK) | 02:53 |
| Mneumonic | i'm gonna dual boot the nightly then until the release and if the nightly is running good i'll replace with official 11.10, thanks for the info | 02:53 |
| mmoebius | glitchd: The really funny thing is, even most of the Windows software uses the (commercial version) of cdrecord ;-) | 02:54 |
| whippersnapper | Mneumonic: You're welcome. | 02:54 |

| puff | All I did to install lame was: sudo aptitude install lame | 02:54 |
| whippersnapper | Mneumonic: Gnome 3.2 should fix most of it | 02:54 |
| mmoebius | ryannathans: I mean, just for seeing another kernel do stuff ... or not to see it. Ist hardware-failure an option ? Did you already run memtest for a few hours ? | 02:55 |
| whippersnapper | Mneumonic: One thing you could try is Fedora 16 beta | 02:55 |

| lambo_man_r2 | Wtf is persistence? | 03:25 |
| lambo_man_r2 | My USB is 4 gig | 03:26 |
| samonov | ryannathans: I have them installed but the nvidia utility sees my monitor as a crt and only offers low resolutions | 03:26 |
| edbian | lambo_man_r2, It's an option in the usb_creator thingy | 03:26 |
| lambo_man_r2 | Oh wtf idc | 03:26 |
| z00mer | I think the new Unity bar/dash is a pretty awesome feature. 10x better than Win Start Bar | 03:26 |
| g0rs | anybody using compiz here? | 03:26 |
| ryannathans | lambo_man_r2: allows persistance of files over rebood | 03:26 |
| ryannathans | lambo_man_r2: it's what you are asking for -.- | 03:26 |
| z00mer | Some like it better than MacOS dock too | 03:26 |
| lambo_man_r2 | So what do I do!? | 03:26 |
| ryannathans | samonov: try edit the res in x11 | 03:26 |
| edbian | g0rs, of course | 03:26 |
| fisher | Err http://archive.offensive-security.com pwnsauce/main skim 1.4.5-4ubuntu3 404 Not Found | 03:26 |
| fisher | why? | 03:27 |
| ryannathans | lambo_man_r2: for the third time, set up a usb with ubuntu with persistance | 03:27 |
| xangua | z00mer: do you have a support question¿ | 03:27 |
| xdc | zoomer: a matter of personal preference. but unity is pretty nice in Ubuntu 11.10. I prefer gnome-shell myself. | 03:27 |
| edbian | lambo_man_r2, To create a persistent usb drive remake the usb drive using the usb_creator in ubuntu. | 03:27 |
| xangua | fisher: is that an ubuntu repository¿ | 03:27 |
| ryannathans | lambo_man_r2: or universal usb installer in windows | 03:27 |
| xangua | is it for current versions¿ | 03:27 |
| edbian | lambo_man_r2, When you install wine are you trying to install wine on the ubuntu OS installed on the flash drive? Or do you have Ubuntu installed on your computer? | 03:27 |
| lambo_man_r2 | edbian: Ubuntu is running off the USB. | 03:28 |
| hexacode | hey you guys...i want to add some form of data, sort of like a signature, to packets by mangling, so that my server can allow the packet through based on signature...meaning if the signature is not there, then drop the packet...is there a way to do this? | 03:28 |
| ryannathans | edbian: flash driv | 03:28 |
| ryannathans | edbian: he needs persistance | 03:28 |
| edbian | lambo_man_r2, Then the issue is that you didn't give ubuntu enough space on the USB drive | 03:28 |
| edbian | lambo_man_r2, yes, you need persistance | 03:28 |
| g0rs | edbian: animations are not working even though they're enabled. The only effects which are working are wobbling windows and fade. | 03:28 |
| edbian | ryannathans, yeah :) | 03:28 |
| edbian | g0rs, do you have compiz-config-settings-manger installed? | 03:28 |
| lambo_man_r2 | Wtf!? | 03:28 |
| g0rs | edbian: i have it installed and its on my panel | 03:28 |
| ryannathans | lambo_man_r2: google-foo is not strong with this one | 03:29 |
| edbian | g0rs, open it, turn on some other plugins | 03:29 |
| edbian | g0rs, :) | 03:29 |

| edbian | lambo_man_r2, what are you confused about? | 03:29 |
| KyleP | Hey everyone i was here a bit ago asking about seeting up a lash plugin for firefox on a mac ibook g4 running ubuntu 10.0.4 lts | 03:29 |
| ryannathans | lambo_man_r2: persistance is space on the usb defined to store ubuntu settings and files over reboots | 03:29 |
| KyleP | a flash plugin*** | 03:29 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: what bout it? | 03:29 |
| lambo_man_r2 | ryannathans: Ah. All I want is WINE for iTunes and redsn0w | 03:30 |
| ryannathans | lambo_man_r2: that's what you are going to have to do | 03:30 |
| KyleP | i'm having a hard time setting it up still. | 03:30 |
| ryannathans | PERSISTANCE. | 03:30 |
| lambo_man_r2 | The USB reboot issue is secondary to that. | 03:30 |
| xannen | What is recommended anti-virus on ubuntu? | 03:30 |
| KyleP | i took the steps you guys said and got errors every time | 03:30 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: in terminal run this sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree | 03:30 |
| lambo_man_r2 | ryannathans: I get it lol | 03:30 |
| edbian | lambo_man_r2, You have to remake the usb drive | 03:30 |
| ryannathans | xannen: none? | 03:30 |
| KyleP | i did that and got errors on the 2nd one | 03:30 |
| ryannathans | xannen: linux != windows | 03:30 |
| edbian | xannen, we don't need it | 03:31 |
| l00pb4ck1 | i run growisofs from a script. how do i check the status of the process? ie burning progress | 03:31 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: did you update first? | 03:31 |
| thevinci | question, I have a headless server set up to be my file sharing server for the house, and I have transmission-daemon running on it. I have my 1 terrabyte usb HD mounted to it right now, but I don't want it always mounted (ie, spinning the disk constantly and wearing it out faster), so, is there a way I can have it mount on demand? Or something like that? | 03:31 |
| xannen | ryannathans, aww | 03:31 |
| ryannathans | try that exact command again | 03:31 |
| lambo_man_r2 | edbian: Ok | 03:31 |
| edbian | thevinci, mounting does not keep the disc spinning. The disc wills till go into power saving and spin down the discs | 03:31 |
| wrektjet | hey can anyone help with Samba? I am puzzled as to what the problem with connecting to my Win7 machine is. I keep returning "Failed to retrieve share list from server" when attempting to connect via the connect to server. I have all my inputs correct i am quite sure | 03:33 |
| zykotick9 | !virus | xannen | 03:33 |
| ubottu | xannen: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 03:33 |
| KyleP | ryannathans: i did update first | 03:33 |
| ryannathans | what ubuntu is this? | 03:33 |
| edbian | ryannathans, 11.04 | 03:34 |
| thevinci | edbian: So as long as nothing is requesting Info from the HD, it won't spin and wear out my device? | 03:34 |
| edbian | thevinci, that's right | 03:34 |
| xannen | ty zykotick9 | 03:34 |
| asparatu | rayannathans: do you have it the drive fomated as fat or ntfs FS because if you do..that might be the reason it doing it. I was reading on seagate website where 2tb drive were saying they were 1.91 | 03:35 |
| thevinci | cool cool, thanks edbian | 03:35 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: how can that not work, sounds like your not A: not conected to internet or B: repo is missing | 03:35 |
| edbian | thevinci, sure | 03:35 |
| KyleP | i am connected to the internet i'm using the pc in question to have this conversation. how do i fix a missing repo? | 03:36 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: copy paste output to pastbin or something | 03:36 |
| ryannathans | from sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer | 03:36 |
| thevinci | another question, right now, I have it mounted in 3 different places, /mnt, /svr/ftp/mnt, and /Ant/Music/mnt, when I unmount it, and then eventually remount, I would like it to mount to those same places again automatically, is there a config file i can edit for this? | 03:37 |
| ryannathans | thevinci: make a batch script | 03:37 |
| ryannathans | bash * | 03:37 |
| edbian | thevinci, I agree, make a bash script | 03:38 |
| zykotick9 | thevinci, you could use one mount, and create symbolic links | 03:38 |
| thevinci | never made a bash script myself... I'll google it, see if I can come up with something... | 03:38 |
| ryannathans | thevinci: something like sudo mount /dev/sd? /mnt && sudo mount /dev/sd? /svr/ftp/mnt && sudo mount /dev/sd? /Ant/Music/mnt or use symlinks | 03:38 |
| ryannathans | \o/ wrote a bash script in one line | 03:39 |
| thevinci | ryannathans, how do I make that run automaticly when I plugin my usb HD? | 03:40 |
| ryannathans | thevinci: that's pushing it a bit far ;) | 03:40 |
| ryannathans | thevinci: create an autorun on the hdd and set it up to run that bash script | 03:40 |
| thevinci | haha, alright, I'm sure I can figure something out from here, thanks alot. :) | 03:41 |
| ryannathans | thevinci: the hdd needs to be mounted tho... ;d | 03:41 |
| ryannathans | thevinci: no problem | 03:41 |
| thevinci | <--- lazy and abusing quick and easy solutions on IRC lol | 03:41 |
| ryannathans | thevinci: i practically wrote the bash script for you | 03:42 |
| ryannathans | just replace teh ? with the drive letter | 03:42 |
| ryannathans | and run it when you plug it in | 03:42 |

| ryannathans | KyleP: that looks like chaos | 03:51 |
| rhizmoe | grr, natty is being weird | 03:51 |
| KyleP | that is what i get when i type the sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get... installer something or other | 03:52 |

| binni | I just installed Tracker the search tool but it doesn't work, probably because it hasn't indexed yet, how do I make it index? | 03:54 |
| ryannathans | binni: hit it | 03:54 |
| edbian | ryannathans, he might have written sudo apt-get ... installer .. python a % 4 | 03:54 |
| KyleP | i feel like there was more to it than that | 03:54 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: what did you put in terminal? that result surely can't be possible | 03:55 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer" | 03:55 |
| ryannathans | no "" though | 03:55 |
| KyleP | i typed that exactly | 03:55 |
| ryannathans | and it cried about python? | 03:56 |

| KyleP | i'll do it again in 2 separate links | 03:56 |
| ryannathans | arooni-mobile: then use sudo kill -9 <processid> | 03:57 |
| arooni-mobile | ryannathans, i dont know what its called | 03:57 |
| ryannathans | i don't have a linux copy working, that's why im here | 03:57 |
| KyleP | ok i won;t post the update but i'll do the other agian the update went fine | 03:57 |
| ryannathans | but all i do is help you people1?! | 03:57 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: I want the update pastesd | 03:58 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: I want the update pasted | 03:58 |
| ryannathans | it | 03:58 |
| ryannathans | it's probably all just ign-ing | 03:58 |
| zykotick9 | ryannathans, using kill -9 against package manager isn't the greatest suggestion (but MIGHT be required). arooni-mobile | 03:58 |
| ryannathans | zykotick9: i'm aware | 03:58 |
| zykotick9 | arooni-mobile, regarding the ppa check if you see anything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 03:58 |

| oscalation | as you can see, i dont remember | 04:23 |
| meem1029 | Hmm, ATI catalyst control center says 1440x900 is the max I can get. Last time I had this problem xorg.conf had changed and fixing it helped, but I'm confused now. | 04:23 |

| meem1029 | I'm not sure if gnome 3 is in the repos though. | 04:24 |
| zykotick9 | oscalation, "!foo | user" for public messages or "!foo > user" for private ones | 04:24 |
| zykotick9 | wrektjet, don't try webmin! | 04:25 |
| oscalation | ah thanks zykotick9 | 04:25 |
| zykotick9 | !webmin | ryannathans | 04:25 |
| ubottu | ryannathans: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 04:25 |
| oscalation | !ask | oscalation | 04:25 |
| ubottu | oscalation, please see my private message | 04:25 |

| KyleP | space between / and flash? or no? | 04:27 |

| gr33n7007h | make sure the multiverse tab is ticked | 04:45 |
| meem1029 | danny_boy: Not a problem. We were all new at some point and I'm not that experienced myself. You can use software center (probably best choice if you're new) or using command line type sudo apt-get install name-of-program. | 04:45 |
| KyleP | sorry i don't see anything that says multiverse | 04:46 |
| Singham | danny_boy : do you have .deb packages ? | 04:46 |

| gr33n7007h | KyleP, System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager > Settings > Repositories | 04:48 |
| KyleP | both have multiverse in ()'s | 04:48 |
| meem1029 | Oh, ya. Things are probably going to be different on 11.04 since I'm using 10.10. | 04:48 |
| ryannathans | fedora uses gnome3 | 04:48 |
| zaapiel | fedora lacks the polish of ubuntu | 04:48 |

| zaapiel | ubuntu with gnome 3 is the cats meow | 04:49 |
| gr33n7007h | is multiverse checked | 04:49 |

| KyleP | software restricted by copyright or legal issues (multiverse) is checked | 04:49 |
| zaapiel | 11.10 beta | 04:50 |
| os1ris | can anyone assist in a graphics issue ? | 04:50 |
| gr33n7007h | already checked | 04:50 |
| zaapiel | i installed synaptic and checked pretty much every repo except for the backports | 04:50 |
| KyleP | yes it's already checked | 04:50 |
| zaapiel | then went to ubuntu software center and typed gnome | 04:50 |
| ncrypter | guess ill have to go fetch 11.10 then | 04:51 |
| gr33n7007h | go to ubuntu software centre | 04:51 |
| KyleP | me? | 04:51 |
| zaapiel | there was a package named gnome that had the entire gnome 3 desktop, now when i login i have an option for regular gnome 3 and gnome classic along with ubuntu | 04:51 |
| gr33n7007h | yes soory | 04:51 |
| KyleP | that's fine | 04:51 |
| viki | how to disable firewall in ubuntu 11.04? | 04:51 |
| KyleP | ok i'm there | 04:51 |
| gbear14275 | sshd_config... Could someone explain the difference between password authentication and challenge and response authentication? | 04:51 |
| ncrypter | thanks zaapiel | 04:52 |

| KyleP | video extraction utility | 04:54 |
| meem1029 | Why can't you install adobe flash plugin 10? | 04:55 |
| gr33n7007h | just install adobe flash plugin 10 done | 04:55 |
| gr33n7007h | viki, sudo ufw disable | 04:55 |
| KyleP | Adobe Flash pluginInstaller for the Adobe Flash plugin for Mozilla Sorry, 'Adobe Flash plugin' is not available for this type of computer (powerpc). | 04:55 |
| asparatu | kylep: did you just try to go and adobe website and download from there and install it. That is what i did when i install it | 04:55 |
| meem1029 | Oh, powerpc. That could make things more difficult. | 04:56 |
| meem1029 | I missed that somehow. | 04:56 |
| gr33n7007h | likewise | 04:56 |
| mannie123 | guys please ave downloaded Ubuntu seperately and also Wubi how do i make wubi install the Ubunt ave already downloaded? | 04:56 |
| meem1029 | I'd recommend trying the Adobe website method. | 04:56 |
| gbear14275 | mannie123, you shouldn't have to download them seperately... the regular ubuntu .iso has a wubi installer within it I believe | 04:57 |
| KyleP | i'm sorry i was saying ppc earlier i did tryn adobe website but i don't know how to install the files it had me download | 04:57 |
| KyleP | i deleted them but i can get them again | 04:57 |
| meem1029 | were they .deb files? | 04:57 |
| KyleP | tar.biz (maybe) and .rpm | 04:57 |
| meem1029 | Ah, you want the tar.bz file | 04:57 |
| meem1029 | get that and then we can help you | 04:57 |
| KyleP | and what do i do with that? | 04:57 |
| gbear14275 | mannie123, just burn the .iso to a disc or thumb drive and reboot... the prompts should explain the rest | 04:58 |
| meem1029 | a tar.bz file is a compressed tar file. You want to extract it using the command 'tar -xvf file_name.tar.bz' | 04:58 |
| asparatu | kylep: if .rpm just do apt-get install rpm and it will install rpm package | 04:58 |
| mannie123 | ok that means i just need to install infra recorder and burn the image file | 04:58 |
| meem1029 | Oh, does Ubuntu do rpms too? That would make things easier. | 04:58 |
| KyleP | and it's tar.gz or rpm | 04:59 |
| asparatu | there is package for it.. unless they change it | 04:59 |
| KyleP | should i download both or just the one | 04:59 |
| meem1029 | Ah, didn't know about that. Then use the rpm method | 04:59 |
| meem1029 | Download the rpm | 04:59 |
| asparatu | do the rp, | 04:59 |
| asparatu | rpm | 04:59 |
| KyleP | save file right? | 05:00 |
| meem1029 | yep | 05:00 |
| KyleP | ok saved | 05:00 |
| mannie123 | guys if i install alongside my current os do i still need the live cd or will ubuntu be on my hard drive? | 05:01 |
| xut_jc | on hdd. | 05:01 |
| meem1029 | now type 'sudo apt-get install rpm' | 05:01 |
| asparatu | i was just going tell him that | 05:01 |
| KyleP | it's installing i think | 05:02 |
| meem1029 | And then I'll let asparatu take over since I don't know how to use rpm on ubuntu. | 05:02 |
| gbear14275 | sshd, passwordauthentication vs challengeresponseauthentication ... If I'm just trying to enable password logon... which should I choose? | 05:02 |
| gbear14275 | and is one insecure? (plain text doesn't instill confidence) | 05:02 |
| KyleP | do you want me paste this all? | 05:03 |
| mannie123 | xut ok then i don't need to insert the cd before i boot? | 05:03 |
| meem1029 | Nah | 05:03 |
| KyleP | ok | 05:03 |
| KyleP | it finished | 05:03 |
| KyleP | says Processing triggers for libc-bin ... | 05:03 |
| KyleP | ldconfig deferred processing now taking place | 05:03 |
| asparatu | im trying to remember the command for the install | 05:03 |
| asparatu | let me find them... i have use rpm in log time | 05:04 |
| asparatu | long | 05:04 |
| KyleP | should i reboot firefox before trying youtube? | 05:04 |
| meem1029 | That won't have installed flash on your computer yet. Just a program that I haven't used that will let you. | 05:04 |
| asparatu | yes close firefox | 05:04 |
| ryannathans | what's the trick installing ubuntu alturnate from usb, unetbootin, i'm trying to install and all i get is "your installation cdrom couldn't be mounted" | 05:05 |
| KyleP | i also have a google chrome deb file that i need help with but i want to fix this first | 05:05 |
| ryannathans | is there some kind of flag? | 05:05 |
| ryannathans | KyleP: deb's are easy | 05:05 |
| thevinci | any one else having problems downloading from demonoid right now? | 05:05 |
| KyleP | ok that's good to hear | 05:05 |
| meem1029 | The chrome deb file should be just clicking on it. | 05:05 |
| gbear14275 | /join #openssh | 05:05 |
| asparatu | where you download the rpm type this "rpm -ivh (rpm name) | 05:05 |
| asparatu | in xterm window | 05:06 |
| ryannathans | guys, what's the magic to get ubuntu alturnate installer to read from usb when it's trying to read from cdrom? | 05:06 |
| viki | i have disabled firewall in ubuntu11.04 but still its running .. just give a solution how to disable it permanently | 05:06 |

| meem1029 | oh | 05:06 |

| zykotick9 | KyleP, what is the output, in a terminal, of "uname -m" | 05:07 |
| viki | hello | 05:08 |
| asparatu | he has ppc it might not work | 05:08 |
| meem1029 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ#Flash.2C_Flash_video_and_Gnash | 05:08 |
| KyleP | uname -m i don't see that | 05:08 |
| meem1029 | That doesn't look good. | 05:09 |
| danny_boy | I was here a while ago, I installed fortran and managed to compile a program. Could anyone tell me how to run it? | 05:09 |
| danny_boy | I have gfortran | 05:09 |
| zykotick9 | KyleP, see meem1029's link above, flash doesn't work on PowerPC (IF that's what you are using, uname -m would tell us) | 05:10 |
| meem1029 | danny_boy: Sorry, can't help you any further than that. I'd recommend looking at the manual/help section or googling. | 05:10 |
| KyleP | ppc | 05:10 |
| gr33n7007h | viki, sudo iptables-save > /root/firewall.rules | 05:10 |
| zykotick9 | KyleP, so no Adobe flash for you - there is gnash and the other then... | 05:10 |
| KyleP | i have both of those :-! | 05:11 |
| meem1029 | KyleP: I forget, are you specifically trying to use chrome or would firefox be sufficient. Also, those plugins might work in chrome anyway. | 05:11 |
| KyleP | i would like to be able to use both | 05:11 |
| KyleP | i need to be able to log into multiple accounts on the same websites and i can do that using chrome and firefox | 05:12 |

| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 05:13 |

| ryannathans | rage, got disconnected | 05:14 |
| ryannathans | did anyone reply? | 05:14 |
| meem1029 | okee: I would recommend waiting until the offical release since until then it's in beta. | 05:14 |
| meem1029 | ryannathans: What was your question again? | 05:15 |
| KyleP | gr33n7007h is that for me and are the && diff. terminal imputs | 05:15 |
| viki | i did....just give me exact command...gr33n7007h : | 05:15 |
| famgod | 11.10 is working fine for me, everything works, except for the fact that I uninstalled fglrx and cant get gallium3d working again =/ | 05:15 |

| soidexe | hi! I updated my 10.10 to 11.04 and now when I inject a removable hard drive it doesn't mount automatically. What could be wrong with it? | 05:15 |
| gr33n7007h | no sorry kyleP | 05:15 |
| ryannathans | meem1029: I have this 10.04.3 alturnate on usb i want to install, all i get is "your install cdrom couldn't be mounted, blah blah"' | 05:15 |
| ryannathans | what's teh flag to fix ti? | 05:16 |
| KyleP | no problem | 05:16 |
| KyleP | so is there a way to make flash work on this computer or and i just fubar | 05:16 |
| meem1029 | okee: 11.04 is the current version and should be stable. 11.10 is still in beta and therefore likely not as stable. | 05:16 |
| meem1029 | ryannathans: Sorry, I have absolutely no idea. | 05:16 |
| ryannathans | rageface | 05:16 |
| ryannathans | someone must know | 05:17 |
| ryannathans | it's common problem | 05:17 |
| meem1029 | I'd imagine if you look around the wiki documentation for a while though you could find something. | 05:17 |
| ryannathans | can't find any mention of it | 05:17 |
| jtomasrl | i just installed ATI propietary drivers and now i cant pass the ubuntu icon at startup | 05:17 |
| ryannathans | jtomasrl: that's happened to me too | 05:18 |
| ryannathans | needs a fresh isntall | 05:18 |
| jtomasrl | wth | 05:18 |
| ryannathans | idk why | 05:18 |
| ryannathans | it's odd | 05:18 |
| KyleP | :-( | 05:18 |
| gr33n7007h | viki, chkconfig iptables off | 05:18 |
| jtomasrl | how did you fix your display problems | 05:18 |
| meem1029 | KyleP: Looking at it, you could probably compile gnash from source and end up with a working product. | 05:19 |
| gr33n7007h | and to re-enable chkconfig --level 345 iptables on | 05:20 |
| KyleP | meem1029: i have no clue how i could possibly do that | 05:20 |
| Taran | how to update from behind a firewall? | 05:20 |
| KyleP | if or how** | 05:20 |
| gr33n7007h | KyleP, why dont you just install osx | 05:20 |
| jtomasrl | ryannathans: what drivers did you install finally? | 05:20 |
| meem1029 | As far as the if goes, I'm sure you could. As far as the how, that takes more work. Also, what gr33n7007h said. | 05:20 |
| KyleP | it's a pretty old computer and i don't have a "legal" copy of it and i'm working for OCCUPY PHILADELPHIA and we are trying to do things as legally as possible | 05:21 |
| KyleP | would it be possible to install windows xp on here by any chance? i'm not a very big fan of macintosh | 05:22 |
| ryannathans | jtomasrl: didn't | 05:22 |
| ryannathans | jtomasrl: can't even get linux installed now | 05:22 |
| KyleP | i mean i guess that would be a question for #windows but i figured i would ask | 05:22 |
| meem1029 | Legal is good. I have no idea about windows. Probably not since I don't think windows supports ppc. | 05:22 |
| meem1029 | Ya, you don't really get support channels for windows afaik. | 05:22 |
| KyleP | what else is new lol windows not supporting something | 05:22 |
| jtomasrl | ryannathans: i just reboot in recovery mode and worked | 05:22 |
| ryannathans | jtomasrl: yay for you | 05:23 |
| xut_jc | windows only support something when they het money back from it. | 05:23 |
| xut_jc | get | 05:23 |
| KyleP | ^^ | 05:23 |
| jtomasrl | how should i remove a .run file installed | 05:23 |
| gr33n7007h | so true | 05:23 |
| ryannathans | IM GOING TO BURN A DISC IN A MINUTE | 05:24 |
| ryannathans | RAGE | 05:24 |
| meem1029 | KyleP: I don't know specifics, but look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo and http://gnashdev.org/ and you should be able to figure out compiling gnash which will hopefully work for you. | 05:25 |
| ryannathans | fuuuuu | 05:25 |
| KyleP | i may try that tomorrow it's 1:25am here and i need to catch a train back to philly at 8:30 brain needs to shut down | 05:26 |
| zykotick9 | jtomasrl, see if there are removal instructions provided by ATI (there is no built-in way to remove things you install "manually") | 05:26 |
| xut_jc | ryannathans: what's the issue? | 05:26 |
| KyleP | thank you for all of your help guys. hopefully it doesn't resort to going back to mac... that would be a sad day | 05:27 |
| meem1029 | KyleP: Not a problem. Good luck with Linux! | 05:27 |
| KyleP | lol thanks again | 05:27 |
| t2mahesh | Hello friends, need a little help on command line | 05:28 |

| === chris_ is now known as Guest29424 | ||
| t2mahesh | how to copy an un-empty directory completely to one another | 05:28 |
| Guest29424 | is it better to use the default drivers or the ati/amd proprietary FGLRX driver? | 05:29 |
| ryannathans | i can't manually mount this | 05:29 |
| ryannathans | RAGE | 05:29 |
| zykotick9 | t2mahesh, "cp -r /origional /destination" | 05:29 |
| jtomasrl | done | 05:29 |
| xut_jc | t2mahesh: as zykotick9 says. | 05:29 |
| meem1029 | Guest29424: Probably proprietary. | 05:29 |
| meem1029 | They're what I use and work well. | 05:30 |
| t2mahesh | xut_jc: wow thanks a lot, it worked :) | 05:30 |
| Guest29424 | there are two options listed for the proprietary. Should i use the regular or the one that says post-release updates? | 05:30 |
| xut_jc | thanks to zykotick9. | 05:31 |
| xut_jc | not me. | 05:31 |
| zykotick9 | xut_jc, :) | 05:31 |
| meem1029 | Probably the post-release updates one since you probably want the most updated unless there are problems. | 05:31 |
| KyleP | how do i find out specifics about my processor i know with windows there is speccy but i doubt that's going to work | 05:32 |
| fritsch | KyleP: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 05:33 |
| KyleP | do i type that in terminal fritsch: | 05:33 |
| meem1029 | yep | 05:33 |
| fritsch | KyleP: this will you show alle information, there was a graphicla tool | 05:33 |
| maxi_ | yes | 05:33 |
| fritsch | Does anyone remember this graphical tool? | 05:34 |
| KyleP | THANK YOU! | 05:34 |
| fritsch | KyleP: is this okay for you? | 05:34 |
| ActionParsnip | fritsch: for what? | 05:34 |
| fritsch | ActionParsnip: something like windows hardware manager | 05:34 |
| KyleP | yes that was exactly what i needed to know | 05:34 |
| merkinmaker | lspci | 05:35 |
| fritsch | KyleP: okay then perfectly fine | 05:35 |
| jtomasrl | so 60Hz wil be my max refresh rate? omg | 05:35 |
| ActionParsnip | fritsch: lshw-gtk | 05:35 |
| meem1029 | I know going to system monitor and clicking on the first tab shows me some. | 05:35 |
| fritsch | merkinmaker: graphical :-) | 05:35 |
| merkinmaker | oh | 05:35 |
| sach1n | Hi Alll | 05:35 |
| fritsch | ActionParsnip: thx, wanted to know for KyleP but he is already lucky | 05:35 |
| merkinmaker | who need graphics? | 05:35 |
| merkinmaker | heh | 05:35 |
| meem1029 | jtomasrl: Why do you need more than 60Hz? | 05:35 |
| sach1n | Is there any application alike monocaffe ? | 05:35 |
| fritsch | merkinmaker: no one, but perhaps some users | 05:35 |
| merkinmaker | alright then | 05:35 |
| sach1n | Monocaffe seems to crash in ubuntu. | 05:35 |
| jtomasrl | meem1029: cause im using a CRT screen and my eyes hurts | 05:35 |
| galagalagala | how can I disable the drum log in sound? I've disabled the gnome start up application, and "play start up sound" in the login screen menu | 05:36 |
| fritsch | galagalagala: when gdm starts? | 05:36 |
| ActionParsnip | fritsch: if you use lshw you can use the -C switch to show hardware classes. Eg: sudo lshw -C display | 05:36 |
| galagalagala | fritsch, unity (is that what you mean?) | 05:37 |
| ActionParsnip | galagalagala: in sound options, set the theme to none. | 05:37 |
| galagalagala | ActionParsnip, it's already on no sounds | 05:38 |
| KyleP | anyone know the difficulty of formatting to mac osx 10? | 05:38 |
| merkinmaker | lshw -C | grep gui | 05:38 |
| merkinmaker | :P | 05:38 |
| ActionParsnip | KyleP: your OSX CD can create partitions at install time, if that's what you mean? | 05:39 |
| merkinmaker | KyleP, you might need to edit kext files to get things up and running | 05:39 |
| ryannathans | ActionParsnip: so far so good | 05:39 |
| merkinmaker | too bad thats all i know about that | 05:40 |
| ActionParsnip | merkinmaker: might want to remove -C, lshw will show all hardware then. | 05:40 |
| merkinmaker | thanks ActionParsnip | 05:40 |
| KyleP | what i meant was i've never formatted mac before | 05:40 |
| ryannathans | ActionParsnip: ubuntu 10.04.3 alturnate gets me as far as not being able to install because cdrom is not able to be mounted... I WONDER WHY. I'm using a usb, what's the magic? | 05:40 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: what was the magic bullet? | 05:40 |
| KyleP | with windows and linux i can do this with ease | 05:40 |
| merkinmaker | what do you mean by "formatted" | 05:40 |
| === wyang is now known as Guest60012 | ||
| ryannathans | ActionParsnip: a non-11 version | 05:40 |
| ryannathans | I just duno how to get past this now... | 05:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Rya | 05:41 |
| meem1029 | I'm pretty sure that it would be pretty easy to do with the install disk KyleP. | 05:41 |
| meem1029 | But, I can't help you since I rarely use macs. | 05:41 |
| KyleP | i mean erasing and reinstalling the Operating system whoever had the ? about formatted | 05:41 |
| === TNZ_ is now known as TNZfr | ||
| KyleP | i despise mac | 05:42 |
| merkinmaker | if you need to know the right filesystem...im pretty sure its HFS3 | 05:42 |
| KyleP | but it was free and we need it for public use | 05:42 |
| meem1029 | Then don't use it. Ubuntu is better anyway. | 05:42 |
| ryannathans | ActionParsnip: all i did was install 10.04.3 to usb with unetbootin, can't get any further in install after choosing keyboard/language, cries about cdrom not being able to be mounted, i tried mounting manually, didn't like that either | 05:42 |
| meem1029 | Oh, random people are gonna be using it. Maybe not Linux then. | 05:42 |
| KyleP | i HAS to be able to play flash | 05:42 |
| ryannathans | it's the alturnate installer | 05:42 |
| KyleP | if that wasn't a must i wouldn't even think of switching | 05:42 |
| merkinmaker | just load up a box with Backtrack...its pretty much Ubuntu | 05:42 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: i seem to remember some jiggerypokery is needed if it starts moaning like that. Involves pressing Ctrl+Alt+F2 and doing stuff there. There may be a boot option instead but I only just woke up :-( | 05:43 |
| merkinmaker | Mint is superuser-friendly as well | 05:43 |
| ryannathans | ActionParsnip: yeah, i been trying all sorts of wizardry, trying to mount it to /cdrom | 05:44 |
| celltech | Downgrade to FF6.. how :( I hate 7 | 05:44 |
| ryannathans | got it mounted but doesn't like it | 05:44 |
| Derpadong | Instead of using unetbootin, use Universal USB installer. | 05:44 |
| * ryannathans has used both | 05:44 | |
| chalcedony | how can i get OpenOffice (not Libreoffice) on Ubuntu 11.04? | 05:44 |
| merkinmaker | much like my sister | 05:44 |
| chalcedony | hi ActionParsnip :)) | 05:44 |
| Derpadong | ryannathans. what kind of use are you using? | 05:44 |
| ryannathans | Derpadong: for? | 05:44 |
| Derpadong | usb* | 05:45 |
| ryannathans | Derpadong: usb is fine, it's a 8gb somthingsomethig | 05:45 |
| ryannathans | ;D | 05:45 |
| meem1029 | chalcedony: It is probably in the repositories or else visit the OO.o website. | 05:45 |
| ActionParsnip | KyleP: what is the output of: lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf' use http://pastie.org to host the output | 05:45 |
| Derpadong | ryannathans, If its a SanDisk or something with a portableapps software on it, it can mess it up | 05:45 |
| zykotick9 | ActionParsnip, KyleP \\\ | 05:46 |
| chalcedony | meem1029, nautilus gives me LibreOffice .. i don't really want to remove libreoffice .. i like lots about it but i cant use it if it wont spellcheck. | 05:46 |
| ryannathans | Derpadong: it's not -.- | 05:46 |
| ryannathans | i know how to computer okay?! | 05:46 |
| KyleP | blank line? | 05:46 |
| ryannathans | computer doesn't know how to play nice | 05:46 |
| ActionParsnip | chalcedony: greb the debs from the openoffice site. You will want to pin the version too so updates don't overwrite your efforts with libreoffice | 05:46 |
| Derpadong | Im just trying to be helpful. You dont have to be a jerk | 05:47 |
| chalcedony | oh | 05:47 |
| ryannathans | mmm blue screen of nothing | 05:47 |
| chalcedony | how do you pin the version ActionParsnip ? | 05:47 |
| ActionParsnip | !pin | 05:47 |
| ubottu | pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 05:47 |

| Guest4722 | what video card could be installed out of box in Ubuntu? | 05:52 |
| i_is_broke | Guest4722, try nvidia | 05:52 |
| meem1029 | Guest4722: Most of them work. I think there's a list somewhere. | 05:53 |
| KyleP | ugh so there is no way to make this work at all? | 05:53 |
| meem1029 | KyleP: It should work if you compile gnash from source. I make no guarantees however. | 05:53 |
| auronandace | Guest4722: to get decent performance you'd likely want the proprietry driver with a nvidia card | 05:53 |
| Guest4722 | I googled supported hardware for Ubuntu | 05:53 |
| meem1029 | Also, what do you need flash for? I think some of the common sites have html5 capabilities which would replace flash. | 05:54 |
| ryannathans | "downloading the release file" then just goes blue, eg the box disapears | 05:54 |
| meem1029 | Guest4722: Is there a specific card you are wondering about? | 05:54 |
| ActionParsnip | KyleP: you have gnash and swfdec installed. If you have more than one flash plugin they conflict and you get no flash. Remove one pair or the other. There is another flash alternative called lightspark which you can use but remove ALL the packages you see listed there | 05:55 |
| ActionParsnip | beta0x64: thanks for the spot | 05:55 |
| ryannathans | http://memegenerator.net/instance/10544515 | 05:56 |
| Guest4722 | meem1029: not really I just though you could recommend one for me because I am too lazy look | 05:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest4722: nvidia have great Linux support. There is an open driver called nouveau which runs well | 05:57 |
| Guest4722 | ActionParsnip: thx I look it on the nvidia website for more information on the nouveau model. | 05:59 |
| Guest4722 | : ) | 05:59 |
| rifqi | hi andyl | 05:59 |
| Ben64 | i don't think nouveau would be on the nvidia site | 05:59 |
| auronandace | Guest4722: nouveu is an opensource nvidia driver not a card | 06:00 |
| Ben64 | pretty much any nvidia card will work well with ubuntu | 06:00 |
| bingopajama | hello all | 06:00 |
| zykotick9 | Guest4722, FYI nouveau only supports 3D on a VERY few nvidia cards | 06:00 |

| xopek | эм. у меня вопрос не столько по убунте, сколько по башу. как в промпте баша вывести уникодный символ за номером 2523 например? | 06:11 |
| xopek | я сделал так: PS1=`echo -e "\xE0\xA7\x9B"` но это не кошерно | 06:11 |

| mbrochh | beta0x64: hmmm... i run webservers and sass daemons and gorun and stuff like that in my terminals... what happens when I close screen, will all these processes still be alive? because its a virtualbox and it would be damn slow if i never close all this stuff. | 06:11 |

| bingopajama | Ben64 how do you get youtube to play in it? | 06:12 |
| beta0x64 | mbrochh, yes actually. screen saves your session and I believe continues to run after you have disconnected. this is one advantage. you can reconnect to your screen session | 06:12 |
| Ben64 | download the flv, then play it? | 06:12 |
| bingopajama | er | 06:12 |
| beta0x64 | mbrochh, you might need to do customization though | 06:12 |

| zykotick9 | bingopajama, (just my opinion) but Totem (aka Movie Player) is a weak media player - there are several better options: mplayer or vlc | 06:14 |
| beta0x64 | mbrochh, why don't you start those processes in a bash script and execute them as background processes? you can put a process into the background with & and bring it to the foreground with fg | 06:14 |
| Ben64 | bingopajama: best results are achieved by using flash | 06:14 |

| zykotick9 | ryannathans, if the drive is 2TB you can't use standard MBR to partitions. Sorry I don't have a 2TB drive yet, so don't personally know the solution. | 06:21 |

| psal_dun | is windows 64 bit (already installed) causing problem to ubuntu 11.04 32 bit(which m trying to install) ??? | 06:54 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: just checking it - but that should be fine | 06:54 |
| psal_dun | you know the 64 bit vs 32 bit compatibility problem ???? | 06:54 |
| Ben64 | i did think about it, makes perfect sense. what percentage of people have a 2TB drive hooked up through a raid card? much much less than 50%, therefore not normal. but i'll shut up about it now | 06:54 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: when in ubuntu can it see the physical device, eg: does it show up with sudo fdisk -l | 06:54 |
| ryannathans | Ben64: it's called storage, a raid array of many smaller drives -.- | 06:54 |
| Ben64 | psal_dun: windows install won't mess up ubuntu installation at all | 06:54 |
| ikonia | Ben64: if you have no idea of what you're saying, I suggest you don't talk as telling someone using a raid card is "not normal" is unacceptable. | 06:55 |
| Polah | psal_dun: No. If you're installing on another partition then Ubuntu will be completely independent of Windows. | 06:55 |
| * airtonix chuckles | 06:55 | |
| psal_dun | all right ... cant identify the problem | 06:55 |
| biami | or else can someone tell me how to install drivers for my Intel HD Graphics card that came build in with my Intel Premium P6200? | 06:55 |
| === Xopek_ is now known as xopek | ||
| Ben64 | your drive likely isn't being detected by the install, use a different drive if you can, or usb install | 06:55 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: yes, it sees it fine, comes up in installer as SCSI2 SDA 2.0TB Adaptec Data, i have it set to raid 5, 3 1TB drives to form a 2TB virtual drive, 2tb drive currently has been formatted with NTFS with 100gb unformatted at the end, it's MBR | 06:56 |
| psal_dun | ok | 06:56 |
| ryannathans | installer detects it as completely unformatted with no partition table | 06:56 |
| Ben64 | ryannathans: you probably should have mentioned that at some point before... | 06:56 |
| ikonia | Ben64: why ? what difference does that make ? | 06:56 |
| ryannathans | stfu Ben64 | 06:56 |
| Ben64 | thats not nice | 06:56 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: tone down the langauge please. | 06:57 |
| Vermicelli | Would someone spare some time to help me with an installation problem? My new sata isn't recognized. | 06:57 |
| Ben64 | because the way he described it before, it was a 2TB drive hooked up through sata through sas | 06:57 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: this is ubuntu 11.04 ? | 06:57 |
| ryannathans | appologies, i have been trying to get this to work for days, i'm trying to code something but i'm just losing work, i can no longer work in a VM | 06:57 |
| Ben64 | that is much different from 3x1TB drives | 06:57 |
| ikonia | Ben64: no it's not - please stop talking now | 06:57 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: this is 10.04.3 alturnate 64bit, 11.04 give me kernel panic on boot | 06:57 |
| Ben64 | a 2TB drive is the same as a raid array? alright then | 06:57 |
| ikonia | Ben64: READ and understand the question, and in this situation, there is no actual difference | 06:58 |
| biami | SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO INSTALL DRIVERS FOR MY INTEL HD GRPAHICS CARD... THE CAPS ARE INTENTIONAL. | 06:58 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: one moment, I don't know if gpt is enabled by default | 06:58 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: I don't think it was in 10.04, | 06:58 |
| Ben64 | i do understand, sorry if you don't like me, i'll just ignore all this hard drive stuff from now on though, sorry | 06:58 |
| ikonia | Ben64: it's nothing to do with "liking you" it's to do with you not understanding what you are saying. | 06:59 |
| biami | FUCK YOU | 06:59 |
| sridhar | @GirlyGirl, thanks let me try | 06:59 |
| Vermicelli | If my install cd gparted and fdisk -l see my ide but not my new sata, what might fix that? | 07:00 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: drive is already MBR, total size is 2tb, windows loves it fine, been using for months, i'm not given the option by windows to convert the partition table to guid or whatever it's called ;) | 07:00 |
| psal_dun | yes 11.04 | 07:00 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: so you need a gpt partition table to deal with that size, but I don't think 10.04 has it built in by default hence why it can't see it | 07:00 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: what partition table did you use ? | 07:00 |
| arghx | Vermicelli: does your BIOS see your SATA? | 07:00 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: it's currently MBR | 07:00 |
| arghx | Vermicelli: and what does dmesg |grep -i ata say? | 07:00 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: that's not a partition table, thats a master boot record | 07:00 |
| ryannathans | o | 07:00 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: not sure | 07:00 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: is there any data on this disk at the moment ? | 07:01 |
| ryannathans | yes | 07:01 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: ok - just checking so we need to be careful | 07:01 |
| ryannathans | a 1.8TB NTFS partition filled and 100gb unallocated at the end | 07:01 |

| ryannathans | i'm feeling liek backing it all up, wiping disk and starting again | 07:02 |
| ryannathans | but that would take 8 hours because the fastest backup i have here is 50mb/s | 07:02 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: there is a possability of that being the option, I'm just checking for gpt support in ubuntu | 07:02 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: i have have a gpt drive before in 10.04 | 07:02 |
| dr-willis | data worth keeping.. is worth backung up | 07:02 |
| ryannathans | i needed to install some package before installing ubuntu but can't remember what it's called | 07:02 |
| Vermicelli | Grepping that yields a ton of datas and patas and several satas, but none taht I make out as reference to the disk. | 07:02 |
| ryannathans | think it had an x in it | 07:02 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: the fact that fdisk is showing it as no partition table is what's making me think it can't see it | 07:03 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: and I'm aware of a problem on 10.04 before with no gpt support, hence wondering if .3 had enabled it | 07:03 |
| arghx | have you looked at the first sector of the harddisk/raid and checked what kind of partition table it is? | 07:03 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: I'd be using 11.04 if i could, but that just kernel panics on boot | 07:04 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: just give me a few moments please | 07:04 |
| arghx | Vermicelli: have you checked dmesg as I asked you to? | 07:04 |
| antnash | anyone got a favourite vnc? | 07:04 |
| Vermicelli | Yes, arghx. No mention of the disk as far as I can tell. | 07:05 |
| arghx | Vermicelli: please paste the output | 07:05 |
| arghx | and also the output of lspci -nn | 07:05 |
| Vermicelli | Pasting the output (several pages) would spam the channel. ALso, most are data and pata references. | 07:06 |
| Ben64 | pastebin | 07:06 |
| dr-willis | antnash: depwnds on your needs | 07:06 |
| antnash | dr-willis: Right, I'm a complete vnc noob. What might my needs be?? | 07:07 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: ok, so a little research shows that the gpt format is fine (or appears to be) with 10.04 - there are some bugs at install time, but as you're not installing, don't care | 07:07 |
| dr-willis | antnash: how would i know. gnome has the vino vnc server client built in by default | 07:08 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: just been reading through some mail threads around the topic, and one of the common issues that comes up is that windows can set the disk up as a windows dynamic volume, that totally windows only technology, like lvm is to unix based systems. | 07:08 |
| antnash | I'm on xfce | 07:08 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: i'm trying to install linux to the raid array | 07:08 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: if it's a windows based volume (rather than partition driven system) that would explain why your disk can't be seen by ubuntu | 07:08 |
| dr-willis | !vnc | 07:09 |
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 07:09 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: that point will still stand, if you disk is already "partitioned" - which it appears to be, the installer should see the gpt partition format, | 07:09 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: the fact that you don't have a small boot partition or a valid partition table at all, may suggest (not fact) that windows has created it as a dynamic disk | 07:09 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: i think i will just back up the whole thing and partition it in linux | 07:09 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: I've never played with dynamic disks so I don't know how this works factually | 07:10 |
| ryannathans | ikonia: in windows i have the option to convert it to dynamic disc | 07:10 |
| ryannathans | i don't believe it is one | 07:10 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: if you are going to install linux first, you need to partition it using the tool "parted" BEFORE you try to install | 07:10 |
| _Vermicelli | http://pastebin.com/xs1q1i4V | 07:10 |
| KyleP | hey guys i'm back again apparently i'm not supposed to sleep ever agian | 07:10 |
| arghx | ryannathans: Under the Control Panel, Administrative tools, Computer Management, then click on “Disk Management”, you will see the entire disks recognized by Windows Disk 0, Disk 1, under the Disk you will see the current configuration “Basic” “Dynamic”. | 07:10 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: if you boot from a livecd and use the tool parted to create a gpt disk layout, the installer should see it fine | 07:10 |
| kdub__ | why doesnt /etc/init.d/gdm stop work anymore? | 07:11 |
| ryannathans | the disc ia basic | 07:11 |
| dr-willis | kdub__: use the service command. | 07:11 |
| ryannathans | i have the feeling it's a GPT disk, because it's not letting me convert it to one in windows, it's greyed out | 07:11 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: that totally goes against the issue, how unusual | 07:11 |
| ikonia | ryannathans: boot from a livecd, and use the tool "parted" and see if you can actually see the partition table | 07:12 |
| kdub__ | that doesnt work either (service gdm stop), just says "Unknown instance" | 07:12 |
| arghx | Vermicelli: you have 4 SATA connectors right? cause all 4 are down :( | 07:12 |
| ryannathans | "disk 1, basic, online, MBR, capacity ~1800000mb" | 07:12 |
| ryannathans | alright, i'll boot a livecd | 07:12 |
| _Vermicelli | Hrmmm. I have 4 3.0GBps, but the drive is connected to one of two 6GBps sockets. | 07:13 |
| ryannathans | lost me usb, one moment | 07:14 |

| _Vermicelli | SATA3 | 07:14 |
| _Vermicelli | Erm- more specific than that, where can I find out? | 07:15 |

| _Vermicelli | The board and drive are both new, so I don't have anything previous to go by with either. | 07:16 |

| ActionParsnip | lericson: what is the file for? | 08:02 |
| ActionParsnip | lericson: what is the name of the archive? | 08:02 |
| lericson | libssh2 | 08:02 |
| ActionParsnip | !info libssh2 | 08:02 |
| lericson | libssh2_1.2.8-1.debian.tar.gz | 08:02 |
| ubottu | Package libssh2 does not exist in natty | 08:03 |
| ActionParsnip | hmm | 08:03 |
| ActionParsnip | lericson: what files are in the folder? are they debs? | 08:03 |
| almoxarife | w47331: why do I get the feeling you stripped pulseaudio and tried to run pure alsa, that use to work once, but I don't think it does anymore with ubuntu | 08:03 |
| lericson | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libssh2/1.2.8-1 | 08:03 |
| w47331 | ahhh very good jedi | 08:04 |
| lericson | ActionParsnip: no, it's a tgz with a debian/ directory (only) | 08:04 |
| w47331 | it wasnt working from the get-go...i've been trying stuff i've read about all night | 08:04 |
| ActionParsnip | !info libssh2-1 | 08:04 |
| ubottu | libssh2-1 (source: libssh2): SSH2 client-side library. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.6-1 (natty), package size 75 kB, installed size 208 kB | 08:04 |
| ActionParsnip | lericson: is 1.2.6 ok? | 08:04 |
| lericson | sure | 08:05 |
| ActionParsnip | lericson: then search software centre and install from there, you don't need the archive | 08:05 |
| lericson | (I thought the point in debian/ directories was them being self-contained?) | 08:05 |
| lericson | ActionParsnip: mind you this is a server | 08:05 |
| ActionParsnip | lericson: I suggest you search the software centre first if you intend to install any software. It may have what you need | 08:05 |
| ActionParsnip | lericson: apt-cache search libssh2 would show it ;) | 08:06 |
| lericson | it does not | 08:06 |
| lericson | this is why i use gentoo :p | 08:06 |

| almoxarife | w47331: your issues have more to do with restoring your system to virgin state in order to get sound, from looking at youur paste I think we both have the same sound card, I did an alternate install of ubuntu 11.04 64bit, worked out of the box | 08:07 |

| lericson | ActionParsnip: that's too bad, so I have to build it myself then? | 08:09 |
| qin | ryannathans: Oneiric, looks like "one on irc", I like. | 08:09 |
| ActionParsnip | lericson: I guess, you may have issues with build deps too. I suggest you clean install Natty or Oneiric | 08:09 |

| ActionParsnip | fritsch: if you want a root console, just run: sudo -i | 08:19 |
| fritsch | ActionParsnip: yesterday when talking about the rootkits it scanned my system and found out, that ssh root login is enable by default | 08:19 |
| fritsch | ActionParsnip: yes, i know | 08:19 |
| fritsch | ActionParsnip: i do not need it, just wondering why default ubuntu server ssh enables RootLogin | 08:19 |
| Ben64 | root is disabled though | 08:20 |
| fritsch | ActionParsnip: wanted to make sure, that there really ist now password somewhere - all ubuntu servers can be highjacked by a "unknown" password | 08:20 |
| maddine | guys i use ubuntu with windows xp and i want to make ubuntu my only os how should i go about it? | 08:20 |
| ActionParsnip | fritsch: never worked that one out, weird isn't it. I always disable it personally :) | 08:20 |

| ActionParsnip | lamah: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/startup-manager-change-settings-in-grub-grub2-and-usplash.html may help | 08:20 |
| ActionParsnip | maddine: how did you install Ubuntu? | 08:20 |
| al_nz1 | to link dir /home/user/test to dir (so that what ever data is in /test appears in home/user/test) would be what?? | 08:21 |
| fritsch | ActionParsnip: should be filed as a bug | 08:21 |
| maddine | i installed alongside windows it was partitioned | 08:21 |
| Ben64 | al_nz1: ln -s <source> <destination> | 08:21 |
| ryannathans | maddine: delete windows patitions and expand linux | 08:21 |
| ryannathans | gparted | 08:21 |
| al_nz1 | Ben64: so the source is the dir with the data already in it? | 08:21 |
| Ben64 | yes | 08:22 |

| Ben64 | al_nz1: i'm not sure exactly what you're describing | 08:23 |
| ActionParsnip | jpohl: once you get booted, run: dmesg | less and read through, look for large gaps in the left colomn (those are seconds since the kernel came up) | 08:24 |
| al_nz1 | Ben64: I have shared /home/user and all sub directories for SMB | 08:24 |
| al_nz1 | there is a directory /home/user/test which is linked to source /test/ | 08:25 |
| al_nz1 | therefore will I be able to access /test because of the link? | 08:25 |
| Ben64 | i'm not sure how samba deals with symlinks | 08:25 |

| n2deep | hi all, what is the current best practice with SSD's in regards to over provisioning and TRIM support? | 08:27 |
| fritsch | ActionParsnip: okay, understood it. the root pwd ist done with passwd -dl, which deletes the password and sets one, that is cryptographically not matchable. PermitRootLogin is enabled cause to let them login with public keys | 08:27 |
| al_nz1 | Ben64: didnt work :-( perms error | 08:28 |
| fritsch | ActionParsnip: so it does not matter for sshd_config if it is enabled or disabled | 08:28 |
| jpohl | ActionParsnip: no more than 17 seconds | 08:28 |
| n2deep | my SSD has TRIM support, so I should skip over provisioning, right? | 08:28 |
| al_nz1 | Ben64: to remove the symlink? | 08:28 |
| fritsch | n2deep: just add noatime,discard to your fstab | 08:28 |
| Ben64 | al_nz1: rm <path to symlink> | 08:28 |
| fritsch | n2deep: kernel > 2.6.32 must be used | 08:29 |
| al_nz1 | Ben64: path to symlink? is that diff to path to source or path to dest? | 08:29 |
| n2deep | fritsch: thank you, I figured that was all i needed. I also add elevator=noop to /etc/default/grub | 08:29 |
| jadoman | al_nz1: you must mount this with bind sudo mount -bind -o defaults /test /home/user/test | 08:29 |
| ActionParsnip | fritsch: no, the account on the system used to authenticate with is disabled, can't hurt to reconfigure ssh though, double lock it out :D | 08:29 |
| n2deep | I definately don't want cfq on an SSD | 08:29 |
| ActionParsnip | jpohl: hmm, strange. Is the RAM healthy? | 08:30 |
| Ben64 | al_nz1: you'd probably want 'rm /home/user/test' | 08:30 |
| Ben64 | you don't want to delete the actual directory | 08:30 |

| Kartagis | dr_willis: I would, if I could see it | 08:42 |
| dr_willis | Nimesh_Accenture: ive seen many indicator-applets that are written in python, you could play with them to make your own as a start :) always fun. | 08:43 |

| Kartagis | dr_willis: nope | 08:44 |
| dr_willis | Kartagis: eww. thats beyond an 'IO-Error' | 08:44 |
| dr_willis | well if you could ever get the device seen, you could use ddrescue to image it to a file - to recover data from. | 08:44 |

| dr_willis | Kartagis: how big is sdb1 ? | 08:46 |
| Kartagis | dr_willis: if you're asking about the USB, it's 1tb | 08:48 |

| dr_willis | Kartagis: you could image the device to a file/ and try to recover. did that the other day for a failing 1.5tb usb hd. | 08:48 |
| Kartagis | dr_willis: will ddrescue get only the allocated parts? because I have very little space empty | 08:50 |
| dr_willis | Kartagis: you dont image TO the same hard drive. You recover to a differnt location. | 08:50 |
| dr_willis | image the HD to some image file on a differnt hd. mount the image file. recover imporntant files. | 08:51 |

| dr_willis | if the grub boot loader is not working properly. you need to fix grub. to get it working. | 08:56 |
| Jeri | @dr_willis can i insert cd when i use fixgrub | 08:56 |
| Jeri | ? | 08:56 |
| dr_willis | fixgrub is not a cvommand.. its a process. :) | 08:57 |

| dr_willis | Is there some kernel option commonly used for the disrtos with an ide/ahci/ setup like this? Oh yea. the Desktop is using that newer bios replaceent like macs use.. i forget its name. :) | 09:06 |
| atomicity | so... other ideas? I didn't have the problem the article stated, which was that he was specifying a partition. I *am* specifying the drive. | 09:06 |
| * ecthiender is back (gone 00:28:33) | 09:06 | |
| atomicity | uefi | 09:06 |
| atomicity | dr_willis: ^^ | 09:07 |
| ActionParsnip | ecthiender: please disable that | 09:07 |
| dr_willis | yea. uefi. new desktop i got has that now. Older disrtos dont like it.. 11.04 has issues.. 11.10 works great. :) | 09:07 |
| ecthiender | ecthiender, okay | 09:07 |
| ecthiender | sorry :D, ActionParsnip okay | 09:07 |
| atomicity | dr_willis: arch handles it nicely with grub2 and gpt... | 09:07 |
| dr_willis | unless i switch the ahci/ide option back and forth depending on the disrto. | 09:07 |
| dr_willis | atomicity: so does 11.10 it seems. :) but i was wondering if there was some 'normal' kernel option for these disrtos that dont. | 09:08 |
| KamZou | Hello, is there any way to compile Bind9 with MySQL AND LDAP backend ? (sdb driver) ? | 09:08 |
| Azeb | I need your help | 09:08 |
| ActionParsnip | ecthiender: thanks :D | 09:08 |
| atomicity | dr_willis: the kernel has supported it since forever AFAIK. It was grub that didn't | 09:09 |
| atomicity | any distro with a half-recent kernel shouldn't be having any problems with gpt partition tables, and uefi isn't even an issue | 09:10 |
| atomicity | so, not a kernel option | 09:10 |
| atomicity | problem is grub | 09:10 |
| dr_willis | atomicity: the older disrots ive tried.. boot fine. (11.04, puppy, and a few others) but once they get booted to the initrd stage they have issues reading the optical drive. this is with 'IDE' enabled.. with 'AHCI' enabled. they do work. | 09:10 |
| Azeb | My computer couldn't login using ubuntu it displays Gnu grup version 1.98-1 and Minimal BASH l ne edit is supported for the first word Tab list possible command completion etc Grub> | 09:10 |
| dr_willis | so this is past grub. | 09:10 |
| almoxarife | installed 11.10's backup method on 11.04, I like, 11.04 likes it too, now, who can tell me how I can trouble shoot a rdp connection issue on ubuntu, yes its to virtualbox, and yes there is a port listening on 0.0.0.0 but tsclient gets connection refused, and yes, virtualbox is checked to run the vrdp | 09:10 |
| atomicity | oh... | 09:10 |
| dr_willis | If i could just get windows to stop BSODing wheni enable AHCI. id just leave it on ahci. :) | 09:11 |
| skipr | hello, I have a problem | 09:11 |
| atomicity | hm... yeah, I remember reading something about windows not supporting AHCI sata mode at all | 09:11 |
| atomicity | win7 should though | 09:11 |
| skipr | I installed kernel 3.0.4 on my laptop with ubuntu 10.10 | 09:11 |
| skipr | and now runway 6 (for gdm3) is spazzing strangely | 09:11 |
| Azeb | my computer couln't login | 09:11 |
| dr_willis | well win7 supports it.. but its a pain to get the actual drivetrs installed it seems.. reg tweak. then a few reboots.. which dident work. so i gave up trying. :) | 09:11 |
| skipr | and after a few minutes it just dies and goes back to tty1 | 09:11 |
| skipr | anyone? | 09:12 |
| almoxarife | this is why my win7 runs in a nice virtualbox without any complaints | 09:12 |
| atomicity | but it's kind of iffy (no firsthand experience though), win8 should be uefi only anyway | 09:12 |
| Azeb | when press power butten it couldn't login | 09:12 |
| Azeb | it display grub> | 09:12 |
| dr_willis | so for now wheni want to boot up a older linux disro. i have to go to the bios and switch the setting. unless its one with kernel 3.x it seems. | 09:12 |
| Azeb | pleasssssssssssssssss help me | 09:12 |
| skipr | SOMEONE | 09:12 |
| skipr | this is not #windows | 09:12 |
| atomicity | Azeb: ... | 09:12 |
| almoxarife | Azeb: what type of install? | 09:12 |
| dr_willis | skipr: you are using gnome3 on 10.10 ? | 09:13 |
| dr_willis | or was that a typo and you ment 11.10 ? | 09:13 |
| Azeb | I using both windows and ubuntu side by side now it is not working ubuntu | 09:13 |
| skipr | dr_willis, no, im not using 11.10, im using 10.10 | 09:13 |
| fritsch | Azeb: does your windows still boot? | 09:13 |
| dr_willis | Azeb: were you just here as 'Jeri' ? | 09:13 |
| skipr | im using gnome2 | 09:13 |
| almoxarife | Azeb: you mean wubi installed ubuntu? | 09:13 |
| Azeb | yap | 09:14 |
| Azeb | cus his computer is not working | 09:14 |
| dr_willis | the term 'side by side' means nothing to us. use the phrase 'dual booting' if you did a normal install of ubuntu to its own parittions.. | 09:14 |
| Azeb | so help us | 09:14 |
| KamZou | What is the difference Between DLZ and SDB (bind9 Backend related) ? | 09:14 |
| Azeb | no | 09:14 |
| almoxarife | Azeb: easy fix, don't stress, the fix is on the windows side | 09:14 |
| Azeb | simply i install side by side | 09:14 |
| skipr | Azeb, side by side could mean anything | 09:15 |
| dr_willis | Azeb: you did or did not use 'wubi' ? | 09:15 |
| zagibu | so you put both cds in while installing? | 09:15 |
| almoxarife | Azeb: you did say it was a wubi install right? | 09:15 |
| dr_willis | Azeb: you did or did not 'boot the cd, and did a normal install' be detailed in your answer. | 09:15 |
| skipr | dr_willis, plz help, I don't have much time left | 09:15 |
| dr_willis | just saying 'yes' and 'no' can be confuseing. | 09:15 |
| skipr | this session will close in 3 minutes | 09:16 |
| Azeb | how can i fix the problem i have a lot of data's on pc | 09:16 |
| dr_willis | skipr: i dont even know why you decided to put a newer kernel in 10.10 - i dont mess with kernels. | 09:16 |
| almoxarife | Azeb: one last time, was your install method 'wubi'?????????? | 09:16 |
| dr_willis | skipr: i dont even know what 'runway 6 for gdm3' is either.. | 09:16 |
| Azeb | no sir | 09:16 |
| atomicity | f** me gently with a chainsaw... | 09:17 |
| skipr | dr_willis, by runway 6 i meant ctrl+shift+F6 | 09:17 |
| skipr | and gdm3 is my window manager | 09:17 |
| skipr | instead of the default gdm | 09:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Azeb: got backup? | 09:17 |
| dr_willis | skipr: gdm is a LOGIN manager... and alt-ctrl-F6 would get you to a console... so whats the actual issue? | 09:17 |
| atomicity | I am actually going to have to use dd to get grub-install to quit complaining | 09:17 |
| almoxarife | Azeb: did your machine start with grub or some win login? | 09:17 |
| Promille | /e f*** atomicity gently... with a chainsaw | 09:18 |
| Azeb | no | 09:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Azeb: why not, is your data not important? | 09:18 |

| Azeb | starts grub> | 09:21 |
| almoxarife | Azeb: do you know how to use a rescue disk to fix grub? | 09:21 |
| Azeb | no dear | 09:22 |
| almoxarife | dear? aint your dear son | 09:22 |
| almoxarife | Azeb: you will need to learn then | 09:22 |
| Azeb | yes | 09:23 |
| almoxarife | yes | 09:23 |
| zagibu | Azeb: just get a new disk, install an OS, and put your current disk in an external enclosure, then connect it to your new system and get your data back | 09:23 |
| atomicity | let me check here before I do something very stupid | 09:24 |
| atomicity | dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb ibs=4096 count=1000 | 09:24 |
| zagibu | Azeb: if you mess further with your current disk, chances are, you will destroy your data, which you boviously don't have a backup of | 09:24 |
| atomicity | will only overwrite the first 4megs with zeros right? | 09:24 |
| zagibu | and yes, I did mean boviously, because you are an ox for not having a backup | 09:25 |
| almoxarife | zagibu: wtf is it with you? | 09:25 |
| ActionParsnip | zagibu: +1 | 09:25 |
| ActionParsnip | zagibu: for ox thing | 09:26 |
| zagibu | wtf is it with you? you are trying to get an obvious amateur to manually repair grub in a live system that still has important data on it? | 09:26 |
| ikonia | zagibu: tone it down please. | 09:26 |
| almoxarife | zagibu: yes | 09:26 |

| openvpn | How do I add OpenVPN to the "Choose a VPN Connection Type" in Ubuntu? | 09:35 |
| luca | dr_willis: now I'm using the 11.04, I didn't find any manuals for ubuntu it's a good idea | 09:35 |

| ActionParsnip | albech: which releae are you using? | 09:36 |
| ActionParsnip | *release | 09:36 |
| luca | dr_willis: I'm not very good in language, especially english technical informatic language I'm from Italy | 09:36 |
| atomicity | albech: yeah, with skype you can configure pulseaudio to mute other stuff when calls are in progress | 09:36 |
| albech | openvpn, apt-get install network-manager-openvpn | 09:36 |
| ActionParsnip | albech: seems a package called earcandy does it but this ppa only goes up to Maverick: http://ubuntuguide.net/install-the-smart-pulseaudio-volume-manager-ear-candy-in-ubuntu | 09:37 |
| albech | atomicity, is that done within skype or pulse audio? | 09:37 |
| luca | dr_willis: about skype can you do videocalls on it? | 09:37 |
| atomicity | albech: I don't know how precisely, I know it happens for me in arch automagically | 09:37 |
| ActionParsnip | albech: if you can find a ppa for your release (if you use natty) then grab that | 09:37 |
| atomicity | albech: it's been a while since i've done anything about that | 09:37 |
| atomicity | albech: check skype settings first | 09:37 |
| openvpn | albech: Thanks, man! | 09:38 |
| dr_willis | luca: i avoide skype as much as possible | 09:38 |
| zagibu | Azeb: did you get what I was saying? Your disk is the last instance of your data, don't mess with it, if your data is important. Remove the disk and put it in an external enclosure, then connect it to another system to get the data back. | 09:38 |
| atomicity | dr_willis: why? it works, and the audio quality is 2nd to none | 09:38 |
| luca | dr_willis: what do you use for videocalling on Ubuntu? | 09:39 |
| dr_willis | and it seems MS is about to become its owner atomicity ... | 09:39 |
| atomicity | dr_willis: we deal with that when it happens. | 09:39 |
| dr_willis | luca: i have this thing called a 'cell phone' :) it can actually do calls.. | 09:39 |
| albech | atomicity, ActionParsnip thanks guys.. i will look at this | 09:39 |
| atomicity | albech: glad I could be of some help | 09:39 |
| dr_willis | i never saw the point of a 'video' call either.. nice to see the grandkids.. but thats about it. | 09:40 |
| atomicity | dr_willis: oh, I use video calls all the time. | 09:40 |

| atomicity | aaah, that's better | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | atomicity: if you use terminal a lot, I suggest you install guake and make it run at login, you can then hide and show the terminal with a shortcut key :) | 09:57 |

| _kad | hey, i need help!! i have setup a pppoe connection then i restart.. now after that my wlan0 is not working it show me: device is not managed (in my windows it works fine). my eth0 is working properly !! what cause this problem and how to fix it?? thx in advance | 10:06 |
| atomicity | luca: I have archlinux and win7 dualbooting on the same laptop. I also need ubuntu to carry around in my pocket for something, and that is what I set up in the last couple of hours. I'm now installing the required software to the ubuntu system. | 10:07 |
| atomicity | ActionParsnip: hm... I'm pretty sure I didn't misspell it in the search in ubuntu software center | 10:07 |
| ActionParsnip | _kad: did you define the wireless interface in /etc/network/interfaces | 10:07 |
| atomicity | or should I be using something else to install programs? | 10:07 |
| _kad | ActionParsnip, yes i did it dhcp and manual ... same issue | 10:07 |
| ActionParsnip | atomicity: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install kdevelop | 10:07 |
| ActionParsnip | _kad: that's why then | 10:07 |
| ActionParsnip | _kad: if you specify interfaces in that file, network manager cannot touch it# | 10:08 |
| atomicity | ActionParsnip: oh, so I must apt-get manually? | 10:08 |
| arghx | atomicity: you can use apt-get if you want to, but both use the same DB of available packages | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | atomicity: its no less manual than searching software centre, is it? | 10:08 |
| almoxarife | atomicity: try synaptic | 10:08 |
| _kad | ActionParsnip, ok now i remove the wlan0 config and i left the auto lo , same problem!! | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | _kad: reboot | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | _kad: changing the text file and doing nothing else doesn't change anything | 10:09 |
| atomicity | ActionParsnip: oh, I don't have a problem with that, I just thaught software center did it already. | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | atomicity: no idea, I don't use it. Its too slow for my tastes | 10:09 |
| === Guest67379 is now known as dikidera | ||
| atomicity | ActionParsnip: heh, I have a feeling I'm gonna do the same | 10:09 |

| atomicity | almoxarife: thanks. | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | _kad: should do the same, reboot covers all bases | 10:09 |
| _kad | ActionParsnip, ok same issue :( still Wireless connection : device not managed | 10:10 |

| atomicity | luca: yes. | 10:11 |
| ryannathans | damn you pxe | 10:12 |
| ActionParsnip | _kad: not sure, I've not use pppoe | 10:12 |
| luca | atomicity: how is possible? A usb key can contain ubuntu? | 10:12 |
| ryannathans | i can access the server, call the second menu, boot the image, just not any further, 'name your cdrom' I CANT TYPE! | 10:12 |
| atomicity | luca: I burned the livecd, booted form the livecd, and with complications installed ubuntu on a usb key of size 100GB | 10:12 |
| atomicity | so, I guess it's not as much a usb key as it is a disk, but still | 10:13 |
| atomicity | atomicity: it could have been a 16GB usb key | 10:13 |
| atomicity | root has 3.7 gigs of room taken | 10:14 |
| atomicity | so I guess you could even do it on 4 gigs | 10:14 |
| luca | atomicity: It's an hard disk of 100 GB | 10:16 |
| atomicity | luca: it has a usb interface | 10:16 |
| atomicity | luca: it's the same as a usb key | 10:16 |
| atomicity | luca: lunux doesn't give a shit about the underlying storage medium as far as the driver goes | 10:17 |
| atomicity | luca: it's block-storage-over-usb | 10:17 |
| atomicity | luca: I really don't see what is so hard to believe here | 10:17 |
| ahhughez | could anyone shed any light on this one? I can connect my keyboard via bluetooth.... but when I connect the trackpad it disconnects the keyboard and vice-a-versa.

| atomicity | luca: hm... let me check something | 10:26 |
| auronandace | luca: arch follows a rolling release, ubuntu isn't | 10:26 |

| ActionParsnip | atomicity: if you remove the stupid .sh extension, mark is as executable and sling it in /usr/bin | 10:27 |
| luca | auronadance: what is a rolling release? | 10:27 |
| atomicity | luca: yeah, archlinux is better than ubuntu | 10:27 |
| atomicity | more current packages | 10:27 |
| atomicity | (for instance, gcc 4.6) | 10:27 |
| auronandace | luca: the software is updated on a constant basis | 10:27 |
| pmnull | is nohack on freenode | 10:27 |
| ActionParsnip | atomicity: one distro is not better than another, each has different aims | 10:28 |
| atomicity | ActionParsnip: sorry, I know, I'mtrolling a bit | 10:28 |

| ubottu | JadedJacob: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 11:02 |
| jrib | JadedJacob: that installs the latest version in the repositories. Why do you need the latest? | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | !ppa | JadedJacob | 11:02 |

| JadedJacob | I'm wanting to do video encoding on my server | 11:03 |
| comitt | is it possible to instal ubuntu and other linux distros on the same partition (swap partition separately), if there is enough space? | 11:03 |
| jrib | JadedJacob: so why not use the version in the repositories? | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip | comitt: they will need their own partition | 11:03 |
| MrBoss | i search SAPGUI java, someone know where I can download it? | 11:03 |
| comitt | sadpanda. thanks | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip | comitt: they can share the same swap though | 11:03 |
| comitt | cool | 11:03 |
| ahhughez | doesnt look like i can revert ubuntu updates, anyone can confirm this? | 11:04 |
| jrib | ahhughez: not supported, correct. | 11:04 |
| ahhughez | bugger, I will have to sort out backups and restore... but for now I need to work out WTF is taking so long to boot now | 11:05 |
| MrBoss | ActionParsnip, do know some xploit scan ? I want to use in *.rar | 11:05 |
| jrib | ahhughez: what do you want to revert and why? | 11:05 |
| stephi | i can't install adobe air am getting segmentation fault | 11:05 |
| ActionParsnip | MrBoss: try asking the channel | 11:05 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: Adobe Air doesn't run in Linux now. Adobe ceased developing it | 11:06 |
| JadedJacob | jrib: I have installed the one in repositories | 11:07 |
| JadedJacob | i'll leave them as they are. | 11:07 |
| JadedJacob | anyone installed mp4box in ubuntu before? | 11:08 |
| stephi | yea is true but i downloaded an earlier version supported by linux | 11:09 |
| ActionParsnip | !anyone | JadedJacob | 11:09 |
| ubottu | JadedJacob: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 11:09 |
| stephi | #vhost | 11:09 |
| stephi | how can i install an air app without it? | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: its a proprietary suite so there is no other way | 11:10 |
| BobSaget69 | I can't get my ntfs HDD to mount in ubuntu server | 11:11 |
| JadedJacob | sorry, How do I install mp4box on ubuntu server 11.04 | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | !info mp4box | 11:12 |
| ubottu | Package mp4box does not exist in natty | 11:12 |
| stephi | what should i do then? why is the older version of adobe air not working/ | 11:12 |
| vsync_ | BobSaget69 I bet there's a lot of America's Most Funniest Home Videos in there, so it's better to leave unmounted | 11:12 |
| === southteks_ is now known as southteks | ||
| stephi | somebody help | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | JadedJacob: doesn't seem to be anywhere, I just searched packages.ubuntu.com you may find a ppa for it | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: is there no alternative to the apps you install in Adobe Air? | 11:14 |
| JadedJacob | found a guide on how to compile it from source code. | 11:15 |
| JadedJacob | http://gpac.wp.institut-telecom.fr/2011/04/20/compiling-gpac-on-ubuntu/ | 11:15 |
| JadedJacob | never compiled anything before :) | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | JadedJacob: nice, make a deb of the binaries and it will integrate with your packages nioce | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | JadedJacob: instead of sudo make install, use checkinstall and you can make a deb :) | 11:16 |
| stephi | nope no alternative i dnt i don't want to go back to windows | 11:17 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: Adobe don't support Linux with Adobe Air, so you may be stuck | 11:17 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: what is this app youu so badly need? | 11:17 |
| stephi | tweetdeck | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: seriously!? Change OS just for some social network site...really!? | 11:18 |
| JadedJacob | there are no binaries | 11:18 |
| stephi | no | 11:18 |
| vsync_ | stephi seriously? | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: are you high? | 11:18 |
| stephi | nope | 11:18 |
| detly | you know in natty, that menu in the top panel with the speech bubble icon, that lets you choose availability for chat and publish a broadcast account update? | 11:19 |
| vsync_ | :D i lol'd my ass off | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: wow, that's pretty sad | 11:19 |
| detly | what's that called? | 11:19 |
| stephi | is just that i thought impossible is nothing hahahaha | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: theres a tweetdeck style extension for chrome | 11:19 |
| vsync_ | tweetdeck :D:d.D: | 11:19 |
| stephi | i dnt use chrome i use mozzila | 11:19 |
| vsync_ | let's be social eh, sittin in front of da computerz | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: http://www.tweetdeck.com/chrome/ | 11:20 |
| hellofoo | gdm is that login screen yeh ? | 11:20 |
| wolfmitchell | I'm on a root desktop | 11:20 |
| wolfmitchell | :D | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: you could use chrome for twitter | 11:20 |
| wolfmitchell | TweetDeck FTW | 11:20 |
| oCean | !rootirc | wolfmitchell | 11:20 |
| ubottu | wolfmitchell: It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. | 11:20 |
| wolfmitchell | Why? | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: http://deerawan.com/deerawan/blogimages/tweetdeck-chrome/tweetdeck-chrome.jpg | 11:20 |
| TehDGM | because root has full access to everything | 11:21 |
| wolfmitchell | Hm... | 11:21 |
| wolfmitchell | Well.... | 11:21 |
| hellofoo | really? who is such a hardcore tweeter ? | 11:21 |
| TehDGM | its like leaving the doors to your house wide open when you're away | 11:21 |
| wolfmitchell | .quit | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: tyhe fact you asked "why" is should scream at why its a bad idea and why ubuntu is setup how it is... | 11:21 |
| wolfmitchell | ... | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | hellofoo: I have no idea | 11:21 |
| vsync_ | :DD this channel is so much pure win | 11:21 |
| hellofoo | but i do, mentally challenged ones. no offence, but yeh | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | stephi: your reason for switching your whole OS just for twitter is, I'll be blunt, pisspoor | 11:22 |
| hellofoo | how can someone really love facebook, twitter, g+, etc. | 11:22 |
| vsync_ | hellofoo agreed | 11:22 |
| oCean | let's move back to the support, ok? | 11:22 |
| TehDGM | the only g+ i love is g++. | 11:22 |
| vsync_ | Anyway stephi I did some extensive googling, I found out a solution, pm me | 11:22 |
| johnm | hellofoo: ActionParsnip: I'd question your place to really ask that. Social networking might be one persons only use for their device. | 11:22 |
| wolfmitchell | I sudo su'd out of root | 11:23 |
| vsync_ | why are you such a big fan of the root user anyway? | 11:23 |
| wolfmitchell | Idk | 11:23 |
| vsync_ | ignorant? | 11:24 |
| TehDGM | are you actually logged in as root on your gui? | 11:24 |
| wolfmitchell | Yes Teh | 11:24 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: the X server and apps you run will still be running as root | 11:24 |
| TehDGM | never do that. | 11:24 |
| jatt | !root | 11:24 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 11:24 |
| detly | wolfmitchell: you don't run normal everyday programs as root because any vulnerability might mean damage, destruction or outsider access to your whole machine, not just your user account | 11:24 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: any app you launch from the menus will be running as root | 11:24 |
| flummy | is there a simple way to navigate from the ubuntu.com frontpage to the current 11.10 beta? | 11:24 |
| hellofoo | anyway, gdm is the login screen yeh ? | 11:25 |
| flummy | without using the search field | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: so any app accessing the web which gets compromised, as well as malicious java script and flash apps will have FULL system access | 11:25 |
| TehDGM | how did you sudo su out of root anyway? Wouldnt that just change the user for that specific console? | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: and can access and change any file in your OS | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | TehDGM: exactly | 11:25 |
| TehDGM | basicly causing no effect if you close it again | 11:25 |
| wolfmitchell | Oh, | 11:25 |
| wolfmitchell | Hm. | 11:25 |
| TehDGM | log out completely, reboot or whatever, and never log in as root :P | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: also, any malicious code in emails will also run as root and have equal access | 11:26 |
| vsync_ | also, captain obvious is obvious | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: this is WHY the account is locked, but people STILL insist, and think, they should log in as root | 11:26 |
| wolfmitchell | I dont read my email w/ a mail client | 11:26 |
| detly | wolfmitchell: it's like the difference between giving someone the keys to your gardening shed, and giving them your whole set of keys | 11:26 |
| detly | I don't have a gardening shed, but you get the idea | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: fine but web browsers running as root are not a good idea at all | 11:26 |
| vsync_ | Can we get over with these idiotic metaphors already? | 11:26 |
| TehDGM | ActionParsnip i do actually change the root password, when doing maintenence on my servers it can be useful | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: running irc clients is particularly foolish | 11:27 |
| detly | oh wait, maybe I do | 11:27 |
| wolfmitchell | Imma gksudo it and run it on my account | 11:27 |
| jatt | try this: | 11:27 |
| jatt | rm -rf / | 11:27 |
| wolfmitchell | Action: I sudo su'd out of the root account | 11:27 |
| TehDGM | no dont try that.. | 11:27 |
| vsync_ | jatt +1 | 11:27 |
| ActionParsnip | TehDGM: I just disable the account, zero password then :) | 11:27 |
| wolfmitchell | No jatt | 11:27 |
| wolfmitchell | Not stupid -_- | 11:27 |
| vsync_ | :( | 11:27 |
| ryannathans | hmm | 11:28 |
| ryannathans | PXE tips? | 11:28 |
| Ibyss | Haha, Ninja Op! | 11:29 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfmitchell: as you can see, when you boast you are logged in as root, we weren't impressed as its not a smart move | 11:29 |
| TehDGM | funny thing is, when i'm on windows i'm always administrator. gotta love double standards | 11:29 |
| wolfmitchell | Brb making breakfast | 11:29 |
| TehDGM | sudo make me a sandwich | 11:29 |
| ryannathans | TehDGM: old | 11:29 |
| Ibyss | TehDGM: I don't use admin when I'm on windows. When I first set mines up, I make the account called "superuser", and then never use it unless I need to install softwares. xD | 11:29 |
| zetheroo | whats the command in the terminal to see which kernel version you are running? | 11:30 |
| Ibyss | Now that's using windows Linux style. | 11:30 |
| Ibyss | zetheroo: uname -, | 11:30 |
| Ibyss | zetheroo: uname -m | 11:30 |
| zetheroo | Ibyss: thanks | 11:30 |
| TehDGM | Ibyss: that's probably the best way. But the way i see it its probably not secure anyway. Just have an easy to restore backup image :P | 11:30 |
| Ibyss | zetheroo: Actually, uname -h | 11:31 |
| ryannathans | whenever i boot any distro over PXE it fails without telling me why D: ubuntu 11.04 does this http://i53.tinypic.com/20ibcb8.jpg | 11:31 |
| Ibyss | No, | 11:31 |
| Ibyss | uname -v | 11:31 |
| Ibyss | -.- | 11:31 |
| zetheroo | uname -r | 11:31 |
| zetheroo | ;) | 11:31 |
| zetheroo | I remembered ... | 11:31 |
| Ibyss | Lol, yea, I forgot em all. | 11:31 |
| flummy | hi, is there an easy way to navigate from http://ubuntu.com/ to the current beta image? | 11:31 |
| TehDGM | ryannathans: don't you need pxelinux or something? It will download the image locally and mount it before booting. | 11:32 |
| hellofoo | gdm is the login screen yeh ? | 11:32 |
| ryannathans | TehDGM: yeah i been setting all that stuff up | 11:32 |
| MonkeyDust | !gdm | 11:32 |
| ryannathans | TehDGM: it mounts as /cdrom | 11:33 |
| TehDGM | hm then it shouldnt even know the difference.. thats odd | 11:33 |
| ryannathans | and it dies, fedora doesn't even tell me why | 11:33 |
| Ibyss | TehDGM: True, windows is way too much maintainence. Defrag, clean up bloaty fat pointless log files, clean registries. Ugh. | 11:33 |
| ryannathans | Ibyss: cleaning logs? | 11:33 |
| ryannathans | meh, i never done that | 11:33 |
| TehDGM | Ibyss: save time and format every few months :) w7 is much better then xp used to be though | 11:33 |
| Ibyss | ryannathans: Log files on windows can really become as big as 60GB. | 11:33 |
| ryannathans | o.0 | 11:33 |
| TehDGM | so do my apache access logs :P | 11:34 |
| ryannathans | never seen that | 11:34 |
| MonkeyDust | a lot technological knowledge is requiered if you use win | 11:34 |
| TehDGM | its not just windows :D | 11:34 |
| Ibyss | Apache don't count, that's intentional. | 11:34 |
| TehDGM | still :P | 11:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Ibyss: on Windows Server, yes Desktop, not so much | 11:34 |
| ryannathans | TehDGM: what does that image even mean | 11:34 |
| TehDGM | ye i dont think my desktop logs so much.. it just puts random huge files in app data sometimes | 11:34 |
| ryannathans | i can't type... | 11:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Ibyss: check you mcafee logs (if you use mcafee ;)) | 11:35 |
| Ibyss | I use Comodo firewall/antivirus. xD | 11:35 |
| TehDGM | i dont use any.. no point | 11:35 |
| * ryannathans uses no AV on windows! | 11:35 | |
| MonkeyDust | what's a virus? :p | 11:35 |
| * ryannathans doesn't d/l virus | 11:35 | |
| TehDGM | no but seriously.. theres no point. I can easily write a program that no antivirus is gonna detect for weeks | 11:35 |
| oCean | Move the windows discussion from this channel please | 11:35 |
| TehDGM | if i can.. others can too :P | 11:36 |
| TehDGM | hence.. no point :) | 11:36 |
| ryannathans | TehDGM: what does that image even mean? | 11:36 |
| MonkeyDust | TehDGM: offtopic: but can you do it for linux? | 11:36 |
| TehDGM | MonkeyDust: no. hehe | 11:36 |
| TehDGM | ryannathans: what image? | 11:36 |
| ryannathans | TehDGM: the one i sent.. | 11:36 |
| ryannathans | http://i53.tinypic.com/20ibcb8.jpg | 11:37 |
| TehDGM | i have no idea honestly, i've never seen that before. Last time i pxebooted was with ubuntu 8 and that worked fine for me | 11:37 |
| TehDGM | using pxelinux | 11:37 |
| ryannathans | same -.- | 11:37 |
| Ibyss | ryannathans: Image, is pretty much like the .ISO files you download to create a CD with. Except you can create an image file to Copy a harddrive, and restore it later. | 11:37 |
| TehDGM | doesnt it let you fill in a name? | 11:37 |
| wolfmitchell | I hate winblows | 11:37 |
| TehDGM | it looks like you can actually type something | 11:37 |
| ryannathans | TehDGM: I can't type.. | 11:37 |
| TehDGM | haha ok | 11:38 |
| ryannathans | up arrow swaps to ubuntu logo though' | 11:38 |

| ryannathans | Ibyss: try and boot ubuntu over pxe | 11:39 |

| ryannathans | odd | 11:42 |
| Ibyss | pmnull: That doesn't look bad to me. But java is known to be a powerful language that has capabilities to perform EVIL things to your machine. | 11:42 |
| Ibyss | pmnull: Check this out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1666195 | 11:42 |

| pmnull | if so from the paste i just did how can i remove this from my computer from terminal? just so i know | 11:42 |
| pmnull | what bash to type | 11:42 |
| luca | dear friends, can you do videocalls on skype on ubuntu?? | 11:42 |
| pmnull | yes | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | luca: yes | 11:43 |
| almoxarife | luca: yeap | 11:43 |
| TehDGM | yar | 11:43 |
| Ibyss | pmnull: That's pretty much false positive. | 11:43 |
| luca | ActionParsnip: how can you do? | 11:43 |
| pmnull | ok ta | 11:43 |
| luca | I have version 2.2.35 | 11:43 |
| luca | but it doesn't work | 11:43 |
| TehDGM | just click the webcam icon thing? | 11:43 |
| TehDGM | does your webcam work at all? | 11:43 |
| coventry | Running ubuntu natty, when I hit the control key I'm seeing expanding concentric circles emanate from the mouse cursor position, like ripples from a stone dropped in a pond. What is doing this, and how can I configure it/turn it off? | 11:43 |
| pmnull | snort didnt log anything when tested my own ip. with nmap..so cant work properly | 11:43 |
| luca | it works very well on cheese | 11:44 |
| ActionParsnip | luca: test the cam in skype, does it work. You may need a different command line to run it. Skype is a pain sometimes | 11:44 |
| ActionParsnip | luca: can you give the output of: lsb_release -sc; uname -a | 11:44 |
| luca | which comand? | 11:44 |
| Ibyss | pmnull: When you get the chance, you should actually google up: /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/.path /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/PyQt4/uic/widget-plugins/.noinit /usr/lib/jvm/.java-6-openjdk.jinfo | 11:44 |
| Ibyss | pmnull: Or search in the ubuntu forum. | 11:44 |
| almoxarife | luca: here is a nice alternative that works for me everytime, chrome/ium with videochat plugin | 11:45 |
| TehDGM | the .noinit seems to me just like a configuration thing | 11:45 |

| phlak_user | hiya | 11:45 |
| Ibyss | pmnull: To really remove files, you use the rm command. Example: rm /home/pmnull/Pictures/bad-picture-001.jpeg | 11:46 |
| fluido | coventry, see if you have something in system -> Preferences -> CompizConfig Settings Manager | 11:46 |
| pmnull | ah | 11:46 |
| pmnull | rm | 11:46 |
| luca | ActionParsnip: what is LD_PRELOAD? | 11:46 |
| TehDGM | hahaha bad-picture? oooh | 11:46 |
| pmnull | is there a SIMPLE bash manual | 11:46 |
| pmnull | for non logical types | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | luca: it loads a lib into RAM, Skype is dumb and can need the command to work. | 11:46 |
| phlak_user | pmnull: simpler than "rm" ? | 11:46 |
| almoxarife | pmnull: you also had a webserver on port 80 you had no idea how it got there didn't you? | 11:46 |
| fluido | I can't remember the exact settings you would need to adjust though | 11:46 |
| pmnull | well so u can sorta figure out a command line urself | 11:46 |
| pmnull | no i didnt | 11:47 |
| fluido | you can also disable special effects altogether | 11:47 |
| Johnny_Giggles | Is there any easy way of accessing HFS+ systems from my Ubuntu or Mint computer? | 11:47 |

| Leeds27m | hey all..I'm using ubuntu 11 with gnome 3...is there a general problem with running firefox or is it just me? My history folders never work | 11:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Leeds27m: gnome3 isnt supported here | 11:47 |
| fluido | oh wait, natty is 11.04... sorry the path on Unity must be different | 11:48 |
| pmnull | it summin to do with letting a printer be a server or something. weird | 11:48 |
| Ibyss | pmnull: It's usually good to google search stuff up before doing anything in terminal. try reading "the file name" and see if you recognize anything in that file name. Like "Firefox". | 11:48 |
| Leeds27m | where can i go for help then? | 11:48 |
| Mikey^ | Leeds27m: maybe #gnome | 11:48 |
| pmnull | or letting users control server content on small devices?!? i cant work it out | 11:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Leeds27m: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc please | 11:48 |
| almoxarife | pmnull: if found an open port 80/tcp and embedded allegro rompage webserver. i have no idea what im talking about but if someone does that would be gr8 <-- yeah you did | 11:48 |
| TehDGM | Ibyss: i'd recommend cat instead for viewing those files really | 11:48 |
| pmnull | is the open port 80 a problem | 11:48 |
| pmnull | if so how to close | 11:48 |
| almoxarife | pmnull: nope | 11:49 |
| Leeds27m | natty | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Leeds27m: #gnome will probably help, Gnome3 is not compatible with Natty | 11:49 |
| ryannathans | how can i find what driver eth0 is using | 11:49 |
| pmnull | ok thanks. | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: sudo lshw -C network | 11:49 |
| Leeds27m | :-s compatible or supported? | 11:49 |
| Ibyss | pmnull: Type: man rm <--- manual for the rm command. Or google search on how to use rm (these examples are easier to follow) | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Leeds27m: neither | 11:49 |

| ActionParsnip | Leeds27m: if you want Gnome3 so badly, reinstall and install Oneiric | 11:49 |
| luca | ActionParsnip: I cannot open skype with that command | 11:49 |
| pmnull | how do i restore natty as having to use gnome after compiz config destroyed command panel and watever commands i type etc cant get i t back | 11:50 |
| Anon42 | Hey | 11:50 |
| Anon42 | How can i add a panel on Ubuntu 11.04? They are locked but i can't find the button to unlock it | 11:50 |
| pmnull | does ubuntu have a sys restore | 11:50 |
| coventry | fluido: nope, but I started top and hit the control key a few times, and the process which is activated is called gsd-locate-pointer. Also, I am running metacity/sawfish, not compiz, though it's a natty install. Now I just have to figure out what framework gsd-locate-pointer fits into... | 11:50 |
| nuckchorris | how can I get the number of upgradable packages without actually upgrading? | 11:50 |
| Ibyss | Leeds27m: You're better off waiting for October 13 (Which is in two days) for the release of Oneiric... | 11:50 |
| wolfmitchell | Action-I couldn't run unity so I downgraded. And dont run that downgrading message command on Ubottu. | 11:50 |

| almoxarife | pmnull: it does, its called backup | 11:50 |
| ryannathans | ActionParsnip: doesn't show driver | 11:50 |
| pmnull | ugh | 11:50 |
| ryannathans | ActionParsnip: only shows all the info | 11:50 |
| phlak_user | ryannathans: lsmod | 11:50 |
| pmnull | whats the recovery mode in boot up for then | 11:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: read the output carefully | 11:51 |
| luca | ActionParsnip: with that command I see the window Skype TM 2.2 (Beta) | 11:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: I can make it easier, sudo lshw -C network | grep driver | 11:51 |
| pmnull | and why after so long and apparent package fixes does my nvidia 8200 mg still not work. and synaptics has gone bust | 11:51 |
| scorinitron | ryp | 11:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: if you READ the output it says the driver module | 11:51 |
| nuckchorris | iceroot: thanks | 11:51 |
| pmnull | someone should look at all these things. im an unwitting bug finder..should be paid in fact for my services | 11:52 |
| ActionParsnip | luca: ok and is skype showing? | 11:52 |
| ryannathans | ActionParsnip: odd, it's not listed | 11:52 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: look in the capabilities section of the first command | 11:52 |
| ryannathans | ActionParsnip: first o i c | 11:52 |
| gentooxer | pmnull: you mean like the guys giving you support? | 11:52 |
| ryannathans | it was cut off the screen | 11:52 |
| luca | ActionParsnip: it doesn't open when I write password | 11:52 |
| ryannathans | got it ;) | 11:52 |
| pmnull | hmm | 11:52 |
| coventry | Looks like gsd-locate-pointer comes from gnome-settings-daemon... I wonder what configures that... | 11:53 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: amazing, and you didn't change anything....weird that | 11:53 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: when a command outputs a lot of stuff, just because it doesn't slap you in the face doesn't mean it's not there | 11:53 |
| Ibyss | pmnull: I know know one for kernels. (I promise this will not be like WINDOWS. That fixes some CRITICAL system errors. It's not going to UNDO program installs/etc). In lunux, you do not "Reboot" unless it tells you to (which is very rare). You do not unreinstall software either. | 11:53 |
| wolfmitchell | Wth in a non-root shell I got this... | 11:53 |

And when it restarted it Openoffice was no longer installed. And when I try to install it, it will not let me. See what happens here: http://pastebin.com/z4PxMDs7 | 13:02 |
| compdoc | jasonlfunk, maybe its because they no longer use openoffice | 13:02 |

| zoulou | ok thanks! | 13:14 |
| Ibis | That's the only choice other than x86 (32bit) | 13:14 |
| zoulou | because its intel, not amd, maybe instructions are diferent | 13:15 |

| a205bw | not completely | 13:31 |
| a205bw | because i need some specific software | 13:31 |

| a205bw | ya | 13:32 |
| a205bw | Ntfs sucks abotu that:( | 13:32 |
| Ibis | REFORMAT harddrive means to permanently erase/delete your harddrive. (That means you can not recover anything from it afterwards). | 13:32 |
| Anomie21 | Ibis: yeah thats fine | 13:33 |
| lordjj | a205bw, that's mainly because all your files that would other be stored normally are stored inside 1 big Wubi file on the windows partition. So one thing goes bad, it's all bad. | 13:33 |
| Ibis | Anomie21: You do not "Double click" in windows to access said harddrive. You Right click, and select "Explore" to actually get in that harddrive. | 13:33 |

| MrBoss | I can connect but i cant resolve IP_LOCAL | 13:39 |
| Ibis | nightcrow: Did you check the page Fredd gave you? The URL? | 13:39 |
| nightcrow | Ibis: yes | 13:39 |
| madurax86 | Ibis: natty stock i havent updated it | 13:39 |
| nightcrow | i guess im looking for an alternative | 13:39 |
| Ibis | nightcrow: Visit puppet support channel if they have one. | 13:39 |
| madurax86 | Ibis: http://pastebin.com/aJvkkyDn | 13:40 |
| Ibis | madurax86: Might wanna try updating that then. | 13:40 |

| pixie79 | hi all, is the a way in pam to say that the following module only applies to X users? I am looking at brining in an option to authenticate via a yubikey for sudo which would be required for some users but not others | 13:43 |
| madurax86 | Ibis: yes it is i think so too, i mean i can not get it if i dont use the usb sound card but i wanna use it is there a workaround? | 13:45 |
| susman | hi, how can i install two different versions of package with apt? i mean situation like this: i need two pythons in system 2.6 and 2.7, so i also need two versions of python-lxml - one for 2.6, other for 2.7, but apt installs it only for the default one... | 13:46 |
| yorx736 | susman: If the package names are the same for the different versions, you can't use apt. You'll have to install one version yourself manually. Python is notorious for this dependency hell. | 13:50 |
| The_BROS | How to disable long refreshing of speeddial in Firefox? | 13:50 |
| ikonia | speed dial ? | 13:50 |
| yorx736 | susman: It may be someone else has provided a non-official repo of the other Python versions with a different package name, it's worth looking | 13:50 |
| Zanzur | uit | 13:53 |
| susman | yorx736: kind of brutal solution is to install it via easy_install/pimp/etc, but in this case apt - don't know nothing about this packages in system, what makes system not consistent, trying to avid it... | 13:54 |
| The_BROS | How to make speeddial load faster? | 13:55 |
| yorx736 | The_BROS: What are you talking about? | 13:55 |
| Calinou | don't use it. nah... joking... why load faster | 13:55 |
| Calinou | I don't use firefox | 13:55 |
| The_BROS | yorx736: there is speeddial plugin in Firefox. It runs very slowly | 13:56 |
| Ibis | susman: Just use: apt-get install python3 Or go to the python website, and download python3.2.2, ./configure && make && sudo make altinstall (in case you want python3.2 now, notice the altinstall) | 13:56 |
| yorx736 | yorx736: Contact the developer | 13:57 |

| Suhel | hi guys... | 14:01 |
| usr13 | killfoo_: 32bit or 64? | 14:01 |
| Suhel | 1 quick question : Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10? | 14:02 |
| killfoo_ | usr13 64 | 14:02 |
| Ibis | CromoZoneX: Then it's pushing you to Ubuntu Classic. You can always try using experimental 3d nouveau driver, (It appears after removing and rebooting nvidia with Propriety driver manager) | 14:02 |
| usr13 | CromoZoneX: 32bit or 64? | 14:02 |
| usr13 | killfoo_: Sorry, that was for CromoZoneX | 14:02 |
| CromoZoneX | 64 bit | 14:02 |
| Ibis | CromoZoneX: Or just simply install Unity-2d. sudo apt-get install unity-2d | 14:02 |
| engammalsko | Can someone help me to setup nullmailer? | 14:02 |

| Suhel | anyone? | 14:03 |
| phlak_user | !anyone | suhel | 14:03 |
| ubottu | suhel: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 14:03 |
| Ibis | CromoZoneX: Yea me too, but nvidia users been experiencing unity3d issues though. (Me being one of them). | 14:03 |
| Suhel | phlak_user 1 quick question : Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10? | 14:03 |
| CromoZoneX | So there's no solution? You are kiddin' me right? | 14:04 |
| engammalsko | Can someone help me configure nullmailer please? | 14:04 |
| ryannathans | GOOD BYE CRUEL WORLD! | 14:04 |
| compdoc | engammalsko, its pretty simple | 14:04 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: that doesnt make any sense | 14:04 |
| engammalsko | compdoc: I don't understand how to do it. | 14:04 |
| Ibis | CromoZoneX: Might be something in it for you. As you're more than likely using a graphic card that's a lot better than mines. | 14:04 |
| Desdenova_ | how can i find the components of the ia32-libs package? | 14:04 |
| compdoc | engammalsko, let me log onto a server that has it running so I can walk you thru it | 14:05 |
| lordjj | Suhel, why not 11.x? | 14:05 |
| Suhel | phlak_user Should I install 10.04 or 10.10? which one is better and stable? | 14:05 |
| Ibis | CromoZoneX: Using geforce ? | 14:05 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: neither; the latest is 11.04 and 11.10 is due for release on 13 Oct | 14:05 |
| Ibis | Suhel: You do not want 11.04 or 11.10? O_O | 14:05 |
| CromoZoneX | I've got on my desktop pc, nvidia 9500gt and runs unity quite well with nvidia drivers installed, why my laptop can't run unity with nvidia drivers installed? it's so weird! | 14:05 |
| oCean | Desdenova_: if it's already installed: dpkg -L ia32-libs | 14:05 |
| engammalsko | compdoc thanks. I just wanna be able to send mails from my server to any email adress. | 14:05 |
| Suhel | lordjj already using 11.10 its sucking my battery like a leech tried all the workarounds available on the internet | 14:05 |
| compdoc | engammalsko, do you have it installed? | 14:05 |
| auronandace | Suhel: 10.04 is lts and will be supported longer than 10.10 | 14:05 |
| oCean | Suhel: Oneiric/11.10 is not yet released (still beta). Please join #ubuntu+1 for further support and discussion | 14:05 |
| engammalsko | compdoc: Yes. | 14:05 |
| Suhel | ocean: am talking about the beta | 14:06 |
| oCean | Suhel: not here, in #ubuntu+1 channel please | 14:06 |
| yorx736 | Suhel: I use 10.10 as 11.04 has an very user unfriendly interface | 14:06 |
| usr13 | CromoZoneX: Use Synaptic Package Manager. And then search for nvidia-current. Click the "Apply" button and follow the on-screen instructions to install or update the new graphics driver. | 14:06 |
| lordjj | Suhel, go 10.04 for the support then. But I'd look around about the battery issue further first. | 14:06 |
| Suhel | ocean: am asking about 10.10 i.e. MARVERICK not OCELOT oh god | 14:06 |
| Desdenova_ | oCean: no it isn't. im not using ubuntu. I just know that for an application to run in linux it needs this package and im trying to find out my distro's equivalent | 14:06 |
| compdoc | engammalsko, open a term window and run: sudo dpkg-reconfigure nullmailer | 14:06 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: I use 11.04 on my netbook and i dont have battery issues yet | 14:06 |
| engammalsko | compdoc: done | 14:06 |
| oCean | Desdenova_: one sec | 14:07 |
| auronandace | yorx736: you don't have to use unity in 11.04 if you don't want to | 14:07 |
| Ibis | Suhel: In Ubuntu 11.04, you can always use Ubuntu Classic, (You can select what type of deskto you can use BEFORE logging into your user account) | 14:07 |
| ryannathans | to anyone i was talking to previously: ring the alarmbells, i'm reformatting the whole array | 14:07 |

| Turingi | What's a way to run a regex pattern against a text and to get all subsets of the text which match the pattern? | 14:07 |
| Suhel | lbis Tried it too, still sucks more battery | 14:07 |
| Ibis | yorx736: Theres Ubuntu Classic in there. | 14:07 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: how is the distro connected to the battery? | 14:07 |
| compdoc | engammalsko, the first screen should have the full name of the computer, like: computername.domain.com | 14:07 |
| Suhel | phlak_user its the kernel the distro is using | 14:07 |
| CromoZoneX | didn't worked with synaptic manager... | 14:08 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: no it isnt | 14:08 |
| oCean | Desdenova_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/amd64/ia32-libs/filelist that's the complete filelist for this package on ubuntu | 14:08 |
| yorx736 | auronandace: I know, but I find the knowledge of its existence painful. I'll be moving to Gnome Shell soon as possible | 14:08 |
| Desdenova_ | ocean: thanks a lot :) | 14:08 |
| compdoc | engammalsko, do you have a smart host to send mails? | 14:08 |
| Turingi | or more exactly, what's a command line way to extract the values all "NAME": "value", pairs in a JSON file? | 14:08 |
| usr13 | CromoZoneX: Hummm... I guess it is broken. | 14:08 |
| Suhel | phlak_user dont you know anything about the infamous POWER bug? | 14:08 |
| engammalsko | compdoc: Hm should domain.com be the domain I'm using? I don't know what a smart host is so I guess no. | 14:08 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: the kernel I am on is 2.6.38-10-generic | 14:08 |
| CromoZoneX | It's there a command on terminal so i can install the latest drivers from terminal? | 14:08 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: nope | 14:09 |
| auronandace | yorx736: good that you know there are alternatives :) (i prefer xfce) | 14:09 |
| compdoc | engammalsko, do you use a domain name? | 14:09 |
| engammalsko | compdoc: Yes. | 14:09 |
| Suhel | phlak_user erm that sums it up, I'll give you the link of the bug shortly, but still what do you reckon? 10.04 or 10.10? | 14:09 |
| compdoc | engammalsko, well, on my lan, I use the whole domain name | 14:09 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: id still stick to 11.04 :) | 14:09 |
| usr13 | CromoZoneX: apt-cache search nvidia-current | 14:10 |
| Suhel | phlak_user lol, I was asking for my poor laptop | 14:10 |
| engammalsko | compdoc: So if my computer name is engammalsko and I have a domain that's superbfish.com I should use engammalsko.superbfish.com as mail name? | 14:10 |
| compdoc | yup | 14:10 |
| hugenumber | Suhel my laptops lover is 10.04 | 14:10 |
| auronandace | Suhel: 10.04 is lts and will be supported longer than 10.10 | 14:11 |
| Turingi | Is there a JSON query console tool included in ubuntu? | 14:11 |
| usr13 | CromoZoneX: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current | 14:11 |
| Suhel | hugenumber auronandace thanks mates I'll try it :) | 14:11 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: this issue? -> http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_linux_epb&num=1 | 14:11 |
| compdoc | engammalsko, then the next screen has info about how the mail gets sent. I use the name of my email server: mail.domain.com smtp | 14:11 |
| Suhel | phlak_user YUP, I tried all the workarounds available on internet with no luck | 14:12 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: so wouldnt it make sense for you to just install an older kernel rather than change the whole distro? | 14:13 |
| Suhel | phlak_user I read somewhere that 11.xx dont support old kernels, kinda makes em unstable, still new to ubuntu so cant make my own judgements | 14:13 |
| usr13 | Suhel: Depends on how you define "old kernels" | 14:14 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: best way to find out is to try it out innit? | 14:14 |
| Suhel | usr13 previous kernels lol | 14:15 |
| th_ | phlak_user: all news from phoronix regarding this "power regression" are just flame, such thing doesn't exist | 14:15 |
| Suhel | th_ its not flame, I saw the difference myself | 14:15 |
| usr13 | Suhel: And to say that any version of Ubuntu will not support "old kernels" would be an error. The kernel supports the distribution's packages, not the other way around. | 14:16 |
| phlak_user | th_: possible dude, ive never heard of it before; also seems to affect IA_32 | 14:16 |
| Suhel | usr13 thanks didnt knew that | 14:16 |
| th_ | phlak_user: it's a bios issue | 14:16 |
| th_ | phlak_user: and quite simply can be solved with a single kernel parameter | 14:16 |
| Suhel | th_ can you plz tell me how it can be solved? | 14:17 |
| phlak_user | th_: im sure; the fix needs to be directed at Suhel | 14:17 |
| DannyDeVito | which channel do i go to ask about "tzdata-java" questions? | 14:17 |
| Suhel | phlak_user yeah I was wondering the same... | 14:17 |
| th_ | It's a motherboard issue. BIOS supports ASPM but doesn't advertise it => Linux doesn't try using hardware that isn't there => power usage goes up => Linux gets blamed. | 14:18 |
| th_ | http://www.fewt.com/2011/09/about-kernel-30-power-regression-myth.html there's whole issue explained, including "fix" | 14:18 |
| Companion | th_, there is a PPA for that | 14:18 |
| th_ | in short: Set 'pcie_aspm=force' on the kernel command line of grub.conf, reboot, and move on with life. | 14:18 |
| caddoo | is there any way to view a MsSQL database in ubuntu | 14:18 |
| FloodBot1 | !netsplit | 14:19 |
| Suhel | th_ didnt work dude | 14:19 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 14:19 |
| Suhel | th_ I already tried it | 14:19 |
| Companion | Suhel, there is a PPA for that :) | 14:19 |
| usr13 | caddoo: yes | 14:19 |
| caddoo | usr13: I have a SQL dump of the MsSQL what tool could i use | 14:20 |
| Suhel | Companion erm didnt get you | 14:20 |
| Companion | Suhel, its just a joke :') | 14:20 |
| Suhel | Companion lol | 14:20 |
| * Companion is running at kerenel 3.0 :) | 14:20 | |
| usr13 | caddoo: see: man mysql | 14:20 |
| caddoo | thanks | 14:20 |
| Suhel | th_ If you are still here, I tried that fix (like I said, I tried all the workarounds) but it dint work for me | 14:20 |
| phlak_user | usr13: he's talking about M$SQL (SQL Server?) | 14:21 |
| usr13 | o | 14:21 |
| th_ | Suhel: try installing 'powertop', it's pretty good for optimizing for laptop usage | 14:22 |
| pendergast | what would be the most painless way of setting your internet connection to be shared via wlan0? | 14:22 |
| phlak_user | !ics| pendergast | 14:22 |
| ubottu | pendergast: If you want to share the internet connection of your Ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing | 14:22 |
| usr13 | caddoo: Sorry, I do not know about MsSQL (I missunderstood you) | 14:22 |
| Suhel | th_ already have it but on 11.10 there are not much features of powertop available | 14:22 |
| bearhunter | can someone who can help me fix a problem send please me a query? | 14:22 |
| phlak_user | bearhunter: ask the question dude | 14:22 |
| Suhel | so tis decided, I will first try downgrading the kernel if it wont work 10.04 LTS is the answer, thanks all | 14:23 |
| phlak_user | Suhel: atb | 14:23 |
| Suhel | phlak_user thanks :) | 14:23 |

| Ibis | I already know it can not be fixed at this time. | 15:34 |
| ryannathans | 11.10 has kernel panic too, fatal error accessing modules | 15:34 |
| dsouls | ActionParsnip: it's a Chromebook, I replaced Chrome OS by Ubuntu | 15:35 |
| emorris | engammalsko, have you done a sudo dpkg-reconfigure postfix? | 15:35 |
| ActionParsnip | dsouls: then you should be using the kernel from the repos... | 15:35 |
| engammalsko | emorris: Yes but I don't know if it's correct. | 15:35 |
| Ibis | I've been keeping track to see if the folks from launchpad is fixing it or not. | 15:35 |

| ryannathans | Ibis: yup | 15:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ryannathans: no panic here on Oneiric, never had one | 15:36 |
| dsouls | ActionParsnip: I can't find the sources for kernel with +, so basically I don't understand what the symbol stands for | 15:36 |
| drei | lol, the kernel is still in the 2.x | 15:36 |
| dsouls | on repos | 15:36 |
| Ibis | I haven't had any kernel related issues. Just graphic 3D issues. | 15:36 |
| ryannathans | On boot it complains it has a fatal error accessing something like /lib/3.0.0.0-11 modules | 15:37 |
| engammalsko | emorris: no. | 15:37 |
| ryannathans | 11.10 lasts about 4 seconds, 11.04 lasts 3 | 15:37 |
| Ibis | And the bug I speak of already been reported. I'm just waiting for th fix so I can enjoy unity 3D. | 15:37 |
| emorris | engammalsko, take a look at that. I've only used exim4, so can't be much help with postfix I'm afraid | 15:37 |
| engammalsko | emorris: Can you help me with exim4 instead? | 15:38 |

| dsouls | is there any issue with sound on ubuntu 11.04? I tried with pulseaudio and alsa and sometimes when I boot the system I don't have sound, I've to reboot like Windows to properly start the sound, and sometimes works, sometimes requires another reboot. Any idea? | 15:40 |

| Galaxor | edbian: Thanks. I'll see if that helps. I had been following their generic instructions and filling in gaps myself. | 15:49 |
| blognewb | SIFTU do you like openshot best, kdenlive or pitivi | 15:49 |

| ActionParsnip | sburwood1: run nautilus and press CTRL+H you can now see the hidden folders, navigate to those folders and delete the 2 lock files but LEAVE the blocklist.xml file | 16:31 |
| GirlyGirl | suhel: Then just type your question here! anyone can help you | 16:31 |
| anth0ny | GirlyGirl: the idea is that I want to use Nautilus-actions to be able to right click a folder and click "import to banshee", just need a command to make that happen | 16:31 |
| suhel | Girlygirl lol, yeah sorry I'd talked with ya few times so just thought it would be nice to talk with someone who knows a bit history of my problem | 16:31 |
| GirlyGirl | suhel: type the problem then! | 16:32 |
| CoolCoder | kde-svn is not finding local repository. is there any cmd to be used? | 16:32 |
| suhel | Girlygirl I downloaded an old kernel package and installed it, it got installed too however it doesnt showup in boot menu and doesnt show up even in ls /boot/vmlinuz* | 16:32 |
| GirlyGirl | suhel: try sudo update-grub | 16:33 |
| suhel | girlygirl did it still no results | 16:33 |
| GirlyGirl | suhel: It probably did not install ... how did you install it and why do you want an old kernel? | 16:34 |
| suhel | girlygirl sudo apt-get -i <path> | 16:34 |
| suhel | oops sorry | 16:34 |
| suhel | girlygirl dpkg -i <path> | 16:34 |
| jaffipaffi | Hey guys.. How do I cd to my USB pendrive? | 16:34 |
| jaffipaffi | Totally novic | 16:34 |
| jaffipaffi | e | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip | jaffipaffi: cd /media/ then a folder in there will be the mount point | 16:35 |
| usr13 | jaffipaffi: cd /media/USB-Deivce-Name | 16:35 |
| GirlyGirl | suhel: The kernel was a .deb then ... was it for your version of ubuntu | 16:35 |
| jaffipaffi | How do I list mount points?? | 16:35 |
| usr13 | mount | 16:35 |
| usr13 | jaffipaffi: ls /media/ | 16:35 |
| ActionParsnip | jaffipaffi: run: mount with no options | 16:35 |
| GirlyGirl | jaffipaffi: cd "/media" ... then type "ls" it will give you the folder name | 16:35 |
| jaffipaffi | Hmm looks like it's not mounted | 16:36 |
| jaffipaffi | But it's shown in lsusb | 16:36 |
| jaffipaffi | How do I mount it then? | 16:36 |
| jaffipaffi | I'm using ubuntu server | 16:36 |
| FloodBot1 | jaffipaffi: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 16:36 |
| suhel | girlygirl erm let me check it... it was kernel from maverick OS... few hours ago I was adviced here to downgrade my kernel | 16:36 |
| usr13 | jaffipaffi: Use the mount command to mount it. | 16:36 |
| GirlyGirl | suhel: and you use maverick? | 16:36 |

| suhel | auroandance lol I know, I was just answering a general question about downgrading kernels | 16:37 |
| GirlyGirl | suhel: as auronandace said can we continue this in #ubuntu+1 | 16:38 |
| suhel | girlgirl ok, I be there | 16:38 |
| usr13 | jaffipaffi: i.e. sudo mkdir /my-usb-device ; sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /my-usb-device ; ls /my-usb-device | 16:38 |
| GirlyGirl | usr13: how do you know its /dev/sdb1? | 16:38 |
| usr13 | GirlyGirl: sudo fdisk -l | 16:39 |
| jaffipaffi | It is sdb1, so should I just call it something random? | 16:39 |
| jaffipaffi | instead of my-usb-device | 16:39 |
| usr13 | jaffipaffi: no | 16:39 |
| usr13 | jaffipaffi: It's up to you | 16:39 |
| usr13 | My instructions was hypothetical | 16:39 |
| jaffipaffi | Thanks usr13 | 16:40 |
| usr13 | jaffipaffi: In other words, you can make your own mount point and you can name it what ever you want. | 16:40 |
| greg3000 | hey guys, got a small challenge.. I just setup dual monitors under KDE and I have to bring each application window to the front in order to see them. Otherwise they are covered by the desktop, anyone know what this is from? | 16:41 |
| babilen | (that mount point should be in /mnt or /media though) | 16:41 |
| usr13 | jaffipaffi: Preferably, you name it something that makes sense to you. | 16:41 |
| jaffipaffi | Yeah | 16:42 |

| Ellipsis753 | hey, My computers harddrive still randomly goes read-only and requires a reboot and fsck to go back. However the plot thickens as the computer was on all of today and in use for parts of it without it going read-only. I think it's the running of "transmission" (torrent program) that is breaking my harddrive? (although it may just be the heavy harddrive use). Anyone know what it could me? | 16:44 |
| ActionParsnip | greg3000: is it the unity session? | 16:44 |
| greg3000 | ActionParsnip: I need to look up more about unity, but I am guessing that it's a possibility | 16:44 |
| ActionParsnip | greg3000: application bar on the left? | 16:45 |
| auronandace | Ellipsis753: sounds like your harddrive is dying, back-up what you need | 16:45 |
| syth | can I prevent pptpd clients from seeing one another? | 16:45 |
| greg3000 | ActionParsnip: Ahh, no it's not, though I have that on my laptop and enjoy it :) | 16:45 |
| ActionParsnip | greg3000: its kde too, silly me, hmm strange | 16:45 |
| ActionParsnip | greg3000: does it happen as a new user? | 16:46 |
| greg3000 | ActionParsnip: good question for troubleshooting, I didn't try yet but I can say it started when I began setting up the dual monitors | 16:46 |
| greg3000 | One different question for the channel, I've got a natty minimal install with openbox and I'm trying to setup wireless through the command line client for NetworkManager but I get dbus.exceptions like org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files. Perhaps I've not installed something related to dbus? | 16:48 |

| leeping | Hi there - I'm having trouble getting my /etc/rc.local script to run at startup. Can someone help? | 16:50 |
| dau | asd | 16:52 |
| edbian | sdf | 16:52 |
| dau | the installer has this nice option "Scan hard drives for an installer ISO image" | 16:52 |
| dau | I have multiple disks and apparently it scans only one and only one partition where it doesn't find anything | 16:53 |
| dau | I'd have an ISO in the root dir on /dev/hde1 | 16:53 |
| ActionParsnip | leeping: it is ran, did you add the commands you want to run ABOVE the exit 0 line? | 16:53 |
| dau | is there any way I can tell it to search there? | 16:53 |
| gangz | hi everybody | 16:54 |
| gangz | Is WUBI reliable ? | 16:54 |
| gangz | no damage on windows ? | 16:54 |
| dau | this "scan hard drives" option is pretty ridiculous. If I have an ISO somewhere I know where it is and want to specify it directly | 16:54 |
| leeping | ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu.com/706223/ | 16:54 |
| edbian | gangz: it doesn't damage windows. It is annoying to fix problems with wubi. | 16:54 |
| dau | and I don't want the installer to crawl through 10TB of data | 16:54 |
| auronandace | gangz: it would be better to use a vm | 16:55 |
| leeping | I already ran "sudo update-rc.d rc.local enable S" | 16:55 |
| greg3000 | my dbus question is solved, I needed to run as root | 16:55 |
| ActionParsnip | leeping: are the files marked as executable? | 16:55 |
| leeping | ActionParsnip, yes | 16:55 |
| leeping | ActionParsnip, would there be any evidence of them running in the dmesg? I know there is an /etc/rc.d/rc.local that calls /etc/rc.local, does it print out to anywhere? | 16:56 |
| ActionParsnip | leeping: all you need to do is add the lines, you don't need any update-rc stuffs ;) | 16:56 |
| _ramo | hi | 16:56 |
| ActionParsnip | leeping: are the files readable by all too? | 16:56 |
| leeping | ActionParsnip, I only ran update-rc because simply adding the lines didn't seem to do anything :/ | 16:56 |
| leeping | ActionParsnip, yes, the permissions are 755 | 16:56 |
| ActionParsnip | leeping: what are the perms on /etc/rc.local | 16:56 |
| gangz | thanks edbian & auronandace : actually, i'm using VBox VM now | 16:56 |
| _ramo | i'm tryint to install redmine on a ubuntu 10.04 as described here: http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineInstall | 16:57 |
| leeping | ActionParsnip, they're the same | 16:57 |
| gangz | but i've seen WUBI, what are the convenients with WUBI ? | 16:57 |
| _ramo | i would like to install the c bindings for ruby, with "gem install mysql" | 16:57 |
| gangz | is it a real LINUX ? | 16:57 |
| _ramo | but this lead to an error | 16:57 |
| leeping | If it helps at all, when I run "sudo /etc/init.d/rc.local start", the script starts normally. | 16:57 |
| ActionParsnip | leeping: you could have the file add numbers to a file. I'll give a pastebin | 16:57 |
| ActionParsnip | gangz: yes | 16:57 |
| gangz | i mean what about the file system ? EXT or NTFS ? | 16:57 |

| monstaRtruck | what should the permissions be on the .ssh dir | 17:01 |
| monstaRtruck | my keys stopped working | 17:01 |
| monstaRtruck | and i was messing w permisions | 17:01 |
| leeping | ActionParsnip, restarting, be right back | 17:01 |
| markamber | monstaRtruck: as long as you can read them, that is usually enough | 17:02 |
| markamber | monstaRtruck: unluess you are using something other than openssh | 17:02 |
| gangz | ok so performances are bad | 17:02 |
| monstaRtruck | i read a while back that it takes specific ones | 17:02 |
| ActionParsnip | monstaRtruck: drwx------ 2 andy andy 4096 2011-10-11 18:02 .ssh | 17:02 |

| auronandace | gangz: the point of wubi is so that windows users can TRY linux, if you already know how to install it in a vm or on its own partition then wubi is very likely not for you | 17:05 |

| Ellipsis753 | auronandace, You don't think my harddrive could be going read-only for any other reason than it dying? | 17:07 |

| auronandace | Ellipsis753: but i'm guessing, somebody might know better, but it would be a good idea to check your harddrive (especially if you've had it for several years) | 17:08 |
| leeping | ActionParsnip, I found out the problem. The hostname was not known at the time rc.local is run, because the DNS service hadn't started yet... | 17:09 |

| silvery | sup, guys. can you tell me one thing: how can I revert ubuntu 11.04 machine to default state ("clean") without re-installing it using Live/Alternate CDs or ISOs, mean is there any way not to use CD-ROM drive to do this? | 17:09 |
| silvery | gangz : me | 17:09 |
| leeping | However, /etc/rc.local seems to be a good place for these scripts. Is there any way I can get the DNS service to run sooner? | 17:10 |
| gangz | silvery : Vbox or Player ? | 17:10 |
| leeping | Of course I could just use the IP addresses of the servers but I would prefer not to. | 17:10 |
| silvery | gangz : Workstation 8 | 17:10 |
| leeping | (As an aside, when I run the scripts using the 'startup applications' window in my desktop manager, it runs an instance of the script each time I log in, so I end up with many instances, which is not the intended behavior) | 17:11 |
| gangz | do you know difference between Workstation et player ? | 17:11 |
| silvery | gangz : player is free, I guess. | 17:11 |
| gangz | silvery : i mean, it's really better on Workstation rather player ? | 17:12 |
| gangz | silvery : about performance | 17:12 |
| silvery | gangz : unfortunately, I can't see the difference(( | 17:12 |
| auronandace | gangz: stick with virtualbox if you value open-source | 17:12 |
| ActionParsnip | leeping: add the IP to name resolutions in /etc/hosts | 17:13 |
| gangz | silvery : i don't know which is better , i tested both Vbox & Player, and with player i have some problem with NAT | 17:13 |
| wad | Hi folks. I'm needing to connect to a printer on the network at work. It doesn't show up in the list of available drivers, so I guess I need a PPD file. Where do I find one? I've googled around, no joy. The printer is a Xerox ColorQube 9201. I'm running 64-bit Ubuntu 11.04. | 17:14 |
| leeping | ActionParsnip, I'd rather the domain names are recognized when /etc/rc.local is executed, is that not possible? (In my ssh_config, I already configured some hostnames to point to other hosts) | 17:15 |
| wangerin5 | wad: Is it found on openprinting.org ? | 17:16 |
| padhu | wad: try on CUPS website. They provide PPD file creation for famous printers | 17:16 |
| wad | Okay, thanks guys! I'll try those places. | 17:16 |
| padhu | also try on openprinter | 17:16 |
| monstaRtruck | if i did 777 on / | 17:16 |
| wad | Guh. Site is "down for maintence" | 17:16 |
| padhu | openprinting* | 17:16 |
| monstaRtruck | is there anyway to recover that | 17:16 |
| silvery | gangz : you can find the benchmarks on the internet, which shows that if you need more performance - use Vbox and if you need special features (like automount USBs and stuff) - use VMWare | 17:16 |
| Silentmyst | I know there is a way, but not quite sure how: how do you mount an ntfs disk in terminal to allow for executable permissions to run programs from ntfs into wine | 17:17 |
| markamber | why is xinitd listening on port 22 on my ubuntu server (version 8.04) | 17:17 |
| monstaRtruck | anyway to recover from chmod 777 on / | 17:17 |
| monstaRtruck | ? | 17:17 |

| markamber | monstaRtruck: I have been there, dont feel too stupid | 17:18 |
| monstaRtruck | what can i do? | 17:18 |
| monstaRtruck | lol | 17:18 |
| monstaRtruck | as every1 rushed to hack my comp lol | 17:19 |

| wangerin5 | markamber: Port 22 is for ssh. xinitd receives the connect, and passes it on to sshd | 17:20 |
| gangz | silvery : use VMWare for what ? are you finish your sentence ? | 17:21 |
| markamber | wangerin5: why is that, why not like the newer ones, what if I really dont want it | 17:21 |

| shelest | I am reading a new about true german software called Bundestrojan. Does this software work under linux or not? | 17:22 |
| ActionParsnip | leeping: you COULD make a script with a long sleep in and add THAT to /etc/rc.local but background the process so boot doesn't hang. When the sleep finishes, the commands will run (as root) but later, should help. Its a bit dirty but should fly | 17:22 |
| markamber | wangerin5: openssh-server, but I used to have dropbear and it was somehow configured to start at every connection | 17:23 |
| markamber | wangerin5: that seems to be the reason why openssh-server is not working | 17:23 |
| Silentmyst | mark: typical mounts go to /media/(media name) - im looking for the command(s) in terminal that allow permissions to be set for executables - i was looking and found some shotty commands for vista that didn't work | 17:23 |

| markamber | Silentmyst: or chmod 777 | 17:26 |

| Ibis | White--: So you're basically not using a CD to install ubuntu? | 18:06 |
| iceroot | troyounces: maybe kvm with its snapshots | 18:06 |
| iceroot | troyounces: then you can use ext3/4 with copy-on-write from kvm | 18:07 |

| g0rs | This is offtopic : anybody knows how to connect to an irc server using a secure connection? | 18:09 |
| zaapiel | im on btrfs | 18:09 |
| iceroot | qirk: there is a tool called "vga selector" there you can switch between intel and ion but you need to restart the system | 18:09 |
| iceroot | qirk: there is a bug in the current kernel so a live-switching is not possible | 18:09 |
| Ibis | g0rs: irc.freenode.org on port 6697 Be sure it says SSL or just try it. (In the furture, ask in #freenode please) | 18:09 |
| iceroot | qirk: let me correct, there was a bug in 2.6.38 dont know what 3.0 is doing | 18:09 |
| troyounces | zaapiel: what do you think so far? any issues with btrfs? | 18:09 |
| zaapiel | none | 18:10 |
| qirk | iceroot: running 3.0 | 18:10 |
| zaapiel | but i cant really tell a difference between it and ext4 in performance or anything | 18:10 |
| zaapiel | im just a desktop casual user | 18:10 |
| troyounces | zaapiel: i see -- i'm not that worried about performance. I'm sure ext4 is fine for me - I just want some of the other features | 18:10 |
| zaapiel | well from what i understand they havent released the tools to defrag or anything yet | 18:11 |
| iceroot | troyounces: if i am correct zfs has also this features but imo there is only a fuse-driver for zfs which is stable | 18:11 |
| qirk | iceroot: but shouldn't the nvidia card already be activated since if I go to suspend mode the site states that it will be reactivated, does this still require a vga switch? | 18:11 |
| g0rs | Ibis: thanks it worked | 18:12 |
| Polah | zaapiel: btrfs allocates files to attempt to avoid fragmentation | 18:12 |
| iceroot | qirk: i had the same netbook, i was only able to say which card is used at the next boot, the other card is disabled | 18:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Polah: tried btrfs in natty and it was a lot slower | 18:12 |
| iceroot | qirk: but i was using it some month ago and sold the netbook again | 18:12 |
| HackeMate | I think I found my problem with rsync, my console doesn't have my language correctly configured. How to configure the console's locale? | 18:12 |
| iridium_ | troyounces, last month I played a bit with btrfs and it in the end corrupted the files of the partition, luckily for me there was nothing important in that partition... so I wouldn't say that btrfs is ready for everyday use | 18:13 |

| Randumb | hrm, can you think of any reason it wont install ? | 18:45 |
| Randumb | using the 11.04 server install disc | 18:45 |
| Randumb | i have 8x2tb drives | 18:45 |
| monstaRtruck | hey where is my grub file | 18:45 |
| monstaRtruck | to edit it | 18:45 |
| dr_willis | !grub2 | monstaRtruck | 18:46 |
| ubottu | monstaRtruck: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows?

| Randumb | each 2tb drive has 3 partitions, 1gb, 50gb, and 1.9tb | 18:46 |
| aboudreault | sorry, I'm back. If anyone has an answer about reinstalling ubuntu and my encrypted home | 18:46 |
| Randumb | and i created a software raid amongst all 8 drives for each partition | 18:46 |
| monstaRtruck | i just want to change the boot order | 18:46 |
| Randumb | so, 3 raid arrays, one for swap, one for / and one for /home | 18:47 |
| dr_willis | monstaRtruck: edit the grub2 configs as needed.. see the grub2 docs.. and the forums have a guide on it. | 18:47 |
| Randumb | any reason that grub will freak out? | 18:47 |
| Randumb | just says it can't install to /dev/sda | 18:47 |
| Randumb | is grub software-raid aware? | 18:47 |
| dr_willis | i thought you raided the disks together.. then partioned the raid.. not each disk.. but i dont even try to use raids any more. :) | 18:48 |
| Randumb | nope, i did 3 different partitions per disk, then raided those partitions | 18:49 |
| x40 | Hi | 18:49 |
| Randumb | was thinking about doing LVM for the 1.9 tb partitions in the 13.6tb array | 18:49 |
| Randumb | so i can slice chunks off as iscsi targets | 18:49 |
| Randumb | anyone got any clues as to why my grub wont install tho? | 18:50 |
| Randumb | and am i being stupid to do gpt partitions on 2tb drives? | 18:50 |
| x40 | Is there a way to tell in a bash script if there is sound coming out of the computer? | 18:50 |
| dr_willis | Randumb: i dont see the point in using gpt on them. :) | 18:50 |
| tacomaster | no ideas? | 18:50 |
| Randumb | dr_willis, that's the default for the partitioner included w/ 11.04 | 18:51 |
| === msdn is now known as d^rk | ||
| dr_willis | x40: perhaps some obscure pulse audio commands. | 18:51 |

| Randumb | 11.04 server mind you | 18:51 |
| ubuntu_ | sa va tt le monde | 18:51 |
| dr_willis | Randumb: cant say ive noticed that being the default. would seem weird for it to use gpt on everything. | 18:51 |
| Randumb | shrug | 18:51 |
| ubuntu_ | sa va | 18:52 |
| Randumb | can i use fdisk to erase the GPT and revert back to mbr? | 18:52 |
| dr_willis | Randumb: most likely yes id say.. | 18:52 |
| dr_willis | but fdisk is getting a bit outdated. | 18:52 |
| ubuntu_ | aaaaa | 18:52 |
| Randumb | parted isnt on the ramdisk during 11.04 install >< | 18:52 |
| ubuntu_ | sav va* | 18:52 |
| dr_willis | you could use dd to zero the drive then fdisk /parted it i guess. | 18:52 |
| x40 | Thanks Dr. | 18:52 |
| mosiman | Hello, I have a question about the ps command if anyone can help me out. If you run something like "ps -alx" you will see kernel processes in brackets, like [migration/0] and [migration/1]. Using the man page I found that the brackets indicate process args weren't available, but does anyone know what the "/0" and "/1" suffixes mean? | 18:53 |

| fhtagn | howdy! any1 care to help me compile ROOT for ubuntu? | 19:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Mang0: in Linux you can use nice to launch apps to give higher priority. Or renice to change a running apps nice value. 0 is default -15 will make the CPU spend more time on a process and 15 will make it very low. You can use the values in that range | 19:12 |
| purpleyuan | mcveat: just curious, why would you need to add -Xmx=512m at the end? | 19:12 |
| ActionParsnip | mang0: nice -15 java -jar file for example | 19:13 |

| deebee_ | dontbehero: Principles founded on sound logic, unlike yours. Mono is licensed under GPL/MIT. That's open source by anyone's standards. What more do you want? It wasn't even written by Microsoft. If anything, mono promotes freedom by allowing CLI applications to be portable. You have no idea what you're talking about. | 19:14 |
| dontbehero | well I ax how to block m$$ mono from an ubuntu installation. That's a perfectly legitimate question. | 19:14 |

| Ibis | NoTV__: Use a fat32 File system. Use Ubuntbootin to put your Ubuntu ISO onto your USB flash drive. | 19:34 |

| g0rs | scorinitron: you can use some proxy servers to appear as if you are in another coutry :) | 19:34 |
| ActionParsnip | NoTV__: unetbootin will handle that. I'd got for FAT16. Remember to MD5 test the ISO you download | 19:34 |

| joshthetechie | when I type in 'find /lib/modules/uname -r |grep snd' I get 'find: unknown predicate `-r'. What does this mean? | 19:39 |
| Ibis | nphase: That's because the source code for php or it's configuration isn't aimed -OR- aware of the settings made by Ubuntu (installation of apache/mysql/ or even other PHP, other things php might want to talk to etc) | 19:40 |

| aetas-dk | Hey guys, Im wondering if im the only one who is unable to create or connect to a wireless network with 11.04? | 19:41 |
| Ibis | nphase: My advice. Either use php source. or use apt-get to install php. Do not do both. (Using apt-getis actually a lot easier to manage your php stuff. Like if you need to install other fancy php things, ubuntu will set it up for you). | 19:41 |
| demonspork | so did you hear, winehq had their user database stolen | 19:42 |
| nphase | Ibis: I'm not sure I understand. i do know though, that if I were to install php from scratch, I'd include --with-mysqli=mysqlnd on my configure line. Is there any way for me to do that in php on ubuntu without building from source? | 19:42 |
| broo | joshthetechie: you need back ticks around uname -r find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd | 19:42 |
| llutz | joshthetechie: modprobe -l '*snd*' | 19:42 |
| Pumpkin-_ | joshthetechie: it means that -r isn't a valid option for find. What I suspect, but can't be sure, you want is ::: find /lib/modules/`uname -r` -name '*snd*' | 19:42 |
| llutz | joshthetechie: or 'find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) |grep snd' | 19:42 |

| Ibis | nphase: I know what it is, I believe this is "combined" in the ubuntu packages. phpinfo tells me that mysqli is available. | 20:06 |
| nphase | mysqli is separate from mysqlnd. mysqli is how either mysqlnd or libmysqlclient are exposed. which all depends on the --with-mysqli=mysqlnd flag | 20:06 |
| nphase | you can use mysqli without mysqlnd | 20:06 |

| aetas-dk | Ibis: I looked up lshw, which gave me this for my wireless: AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter, Atheros Communication | 20:25 |
| aetas-dk | Ibis: no | 20:25 |
| Ibis | aetas-dk: Is your network password protected? | 20:26 |
| Dracosoft | nijad: then run the script and give it the hostname of the app like "./script HostNameOfApp" | 20:26 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, What is the problem with your wireless? I'm sorry, I joined after you asked your question :) | 20:26 |
| nijad | so wait | 20:27 |
| aetas-dk | Ibis: I have tried with encryption WEP/WPA/WPA2 and without encryption | 20:27 |
| Dracosoft | nijad: it will do everything for you | 20:27 |
| nijad | so where should i place ma code | 20:27 |
| nijad | for wxample am doing ma work in /home/nijad/catalogapp | 20:27 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Thank you for asking, Im having problems with my wifi after installing ubuntu 11.04, my wifi is a AR9285 WirelessE. I can see other network, but I cannot join other networks, and the ones I create are not visible to others. | 20:27 |
| Dracosoft | open a text file, copy it in, and run it ("./scriptName vhostName") | 20:28 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, first, have you got the correct kernel module to support the AR9285? if I remember, its supported by ath9k | 20:28 |
| Dracosoft | oh....u have to run as sudo to get permissions right | 20:29 |
| Dracosoft | nijad: u got the code, so look at it b4 u run as sudo! | 20:29 |
| nijad | Dracosoft: ok | 20:29 |
| nijad | vhostname can be anything? | 20:29 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Probably not, not if it was not shipped with the latest package | 20:30 |
| Dracosoft | let me know if it works for you | 20:30 |
| nijad | does that and my workspace have any relation? | 20:30 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: How do I get it? | 20:30 |
| Dracosoft | yes..... ./script assumes u are in the directory that u saved it in | 20:30 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, can you open a terminal up for me, and when you get in, just type sudo lsmod | grep ath9k for me | 20:30 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, let's check it's not there first :) | 20:31 |
| nijad | no n o not that | 20:31 |
| nijad | i meant vhostname and my workspace | 20:31 |

| ubottu | Dracosoft, please see my private message | 20:32 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Okay, did that what information do you need? | 20:32 |
| Dracosoft | ah, the script puts it in ur /var/www directory | 20:32 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, did you get any response from the command? | 20:32 |
| sammy | for anyone wondering, its a poor implementation of listing output applications in sound preferences. the slider has to do with pulseaudio talking to a machine over the network, and rather than explaining that, the input and output it is monitoring are just called 'pulseaudio' | 20:32 |
| nijad | so my code and all should be in dat? | 20:32 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: yep, It gave me quit a lot actually | 20:33 |
| BarkingFish | do you see ath9k in any of the output, aetas-dk? | 20:33 |
| nijad | Dracosoft: really sorry, this is just because am really new to this | 20:33 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: yes, it says ath9k in 3 of 6 lines | 20:33 |
| jtomasrl | is there a way to have more than 60Hz refresh rate using a ATI video card and a CRT screen? | 20:34 |
| BarkingFish | ok, so you have it installed. That's good, aetas-dk - next, can you see if you have a wpa_supplicant installed please? | 20:34 |
| Dracosoft | nijad: all good.....but yes, I made the script so that I could setup many websites in a hurry... | 20:34 |
| nijad | ok | 20:34 |
| Dracosoft | and the sites are only available from that directory (w/o a lot of .config editing :) ) | 20:35 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Im not sure how to get that information, I have only been using linux for two weeks | 20:35 |
| nijad | ok | 20:35 |
| nijad | i copied that script | 20:35 |
| nijad | and named it vhost | 20:36 |
| nijad | ./vhost doesnt work | 20:36 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, ok, no problem. just type sudo updatedb, hit enter and wait till it's finished, then type locate wpa_supplicant | 20:36 |
| Dracosoft | are you in the same directory? | 20:36 |
| nijad | yea | 20:36 |
| th0r | nijad: did you mark it as executable? | 20:36 |
| Dracosoft | nijad: there you go.....sorry, left that part out | 20:36 |
| nijad | oh no | 20:37 |
| Dracosoft | chmod +e vhost | 20:37 |
| th0r | chmod +x | 20:37 |

| nijad | Dracosoft: now wat? | 20:38 |
| jtomasrl | is there a way to force the display of higher refresh rates? | 20:38 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Thank you for helping me. It seems that I have installed the wpa_supplicant. It is located in etc, sbin and usr | 20:38 |
| BarkingFish | aarcane, if you're after info for yourself, can you deal with ubottu in query please :) | 20:38 |
| aarcane | BarkingFish, I found out what I need, but if I remember in the future, I will :) | 20:39 |
| BarkingFish | ok. Now comes the tough bit, aetas-dk - I use KDE, you'll be in Gnome, and I don't know what you use to connect to wifi in Gnome :) | 20:39 |
| Dracosoft | put ur code in /var/www/yourHostname and you can go to it in a browser | 20:39 |
| nijad | Dracosoft: I can open it from my browser | 20:39 |
| AlReece45 | Why does Ubuntu LTS install always detect I'm in America/Chicago when I'm in America/New_York? | 20:39 |
| Dracosoft | yup.....just navigate to the hostname | 20:39 |
| reisio | AlReece45: are you dual booting with Windows? | 20:40 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: As far as I know it is called Network Manager | 20:40 |
| Atreus | why am i unable to change the screen birghtness percentage while on battery power though the power management? | 20:40 |
| deebee_ | AlReece45: That'll be down to your ISPs network architecture I expect. Geolocating via an IP address isn't always perfect | 20:40 |
| nijad | ok now its like dis | 20:40 |
| AlReece45 | reisio: no | 20:40 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, ah. One second then, let me pull some info on it, and I'll be right back | 20:40 |
| nijad | ma code is in the folder /home/nijad/catalogapp | 20:40 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Thank you so much for taking your time! | 20:40 |
| nijad | so shud i copy all that to that? | 20:40 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, it seems you're using what I'm using :) | 20:41 |
| BarkingFish | which makes this a lot easier. | 20:41 |
| AlReece45 | deebee_: Do you know what geolocation it uses? | 20:41 |
| nijad | Dracosoft: ma code is in the folder /home/nijad/catalogapp | 20:41 |
| deebee_ | AlReece45: which I'm guessing (others may know for sure) is how the ubuntu installer trys to work out where you are | 20:41 |
| nijad | Dracosoft: so shud i copy all that to it? | 20:41 |
| deebee_ | AlReece45: nope, afraid not | 20:41 |
| Dracosoft | so if u were to navigate to that folder in ur browser, does it start the app ..... then yes | 20:41 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Great :) Well it is a lot easier to help when one can see ;) | 20:42 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, can you click the network manager icon in your panel please, then click manage connections on the right side :) | 20:42 |
| nijad | Like am working using python-flask | 20:42 |
| Dracosoft | nijad: I believe so | 20:42 |

| BarkingFish | that will most likely be it, assuming we are using the same thing | 20:43 |
| Janeh | oh gosh | 20:43 |
| Janeh | look at those people ---------------> | 20:43 |
| Dracosoft | nijad: s/b | 20:43 |

| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, yes please | 20:44 |
| aschmitz | I have a USB drive that's not showing up on any computers. It's probably dead, but I'd like to try it under Ubuntu just to check. Syslog gives a bunch of "device not accepting address 7, error -32" and such. I know that in the past, that could sometimes be fixed by dropping ehci_hcd to force USB 1.1, but it seems as though I can't do that in 11.04. Does anyone know of a way to force USB 1.1 connections in 11.04? | 20:44 |
| Janeh | asd | 20:45 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: I have one network here, that I have created. Do you want the info on it? | 20:45 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, it looks like we're not using the same version of things, maybe I'm flying blind. | 20:45 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, do you have any entries for a wireless network you connect to, like your router or something? | 20:45 |
| Dracosoft | changed the script to point to /home/nijad try it again | 20:45 |
| Dracosoft | hostname is catalogapp right? | 20:46 |
| nijad | yea | 20:46 |
| Dracosoft | try it again | 20:46 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: yes, just by pushing the wireless icon in the panel | 20:46 |

| AlReece45 | My company has an IP range alloted from ARIN— every geoservice I know has a pretty good location/lat/long (its saying I'm 5 miles east from where I am).

| aarcane | Hi, I'm interrested in setting up my own private cloud, and I have two machines to host the cloud and I want them to be "fully redundant", IE if either fails, the other will be able to run the cloud... guests? Is that the right term? without batting an eyelash. a few minutes of downtime is acceptible, but failover has to be autonomous to be worth my time implementing it. | 20:47 |
| BarkingFish | right, now I know we're not using the same thing, aetas-dk - hold on a moment! | 20:47 |
| aarcane | Is the UEC software capable of handling this sort of setup, including data replication? I've been browsing the manuals and have yet to identify an answer. | 20:47 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Here I can see all the networks in my area, though I cannot connect to any of them | 20:47 |
| nijad | Dracosoft: ok | 20:47 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: ok:) | 20:47 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, does it show you how they're secured? | 20:47 |
| Pici | aarcane: #ubuntu-cloud and/or #ubuntu-server would be a better place to ask. | 20:47 |
| BarkingFish | probably with a little shield in red, yellow or green, aetas-dk? | 20:47 |
| aarcane | Pici, I figured, but if anyone here knows, I'd still love an answer. | 20:47 |
| aarcane | #ubuntu-server Hi, I'm interrested in setting up my own private cloud, and I have two machines to host the cloud and I want them to be "fully redundant", IE if either fails, the other will be able to run the cloud... guests?

| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: no, unfortunatlly not | 20:50 |
| reisio | exodus_ms: to what format? | 20:50 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, dang. What version of Ubuntu are you running> | 20:51 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: 11.04 | 20:51 |
| Apteryx | Or could someone tell me if VLC 1.1.11 is va-api ready in Ubuntu 11.10? | 20:51 |
| exodus_ms | reisio, they have a list of supported formats, which is pretty much everything. I've tried rendering using pitvi and ffmpeg to avi, mp4 and ogg, but they all fail | 20:52 |
| BarkingFish | ok... I'm just looking for screenshots of what you're using, I need them since I'm in the dark right now, aetas-dk :) | 20:52 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Is that a problem? | 20:52 |
| BarkingFish | no, I'm on the KDE version, also at 11.04 :) | 20:52 |
| reisio | exodus_ms: do you get an error message? | 20:52 |
| reisio | exodus_ms: what was the original format? | 20:52 |
| Pici | Apteryx : Oneiric/11.10 is not yet released. Please join #ubuntu+1 for further support and discussion. | 20:52 |

| exodus_ms | reisio, original format was from my driod (whichever format that is, not sure). I then used pitivi to edit and render | 20:54 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Thank you very much! People like you are just the greatest! If you ever need a favour in Denmark, then just let me know | 20:55 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: oh, yes of course, sorry | 20:55 |
| BarkingFish | :) | 20:55 |
| exodus_ms | reisio, no error messages when I render. but when I try to upload to facebook it says the format is not supported. | 20:56 |
| BarkingFish | Right, it looks like all those networks are locked down, aetas-dk - do you have the passwords to use any of them? | 20:56 |
| Atreus | why am i unable to change the screen birghtness percentage while on battery power though the power management? | 20:56 |
| reisio | exodus_ms: what'd you change with pitivi? | 20:56 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, ignore that. I didn't realise that was a screenshot from someone else's machine :P | 20:57 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: I have tried setting up a network on my mac, and it will not connect | 20:57 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: hehe okay :) | 20:57 |
| exodus_ms | reisio, I cut the audio from the original video I took on my driod and then used pitivi to render a video of the audio with still pics transitioning through the playback | 20:58 |
| BarkingFish | ok, do you have any networks near you that you have a password for, aetas-dk - other than ones you have set up? | 20:58 |
| reisio | exodus_ms: what format did pitivi spit out? | 20:58 |
| reisio | exodus_ms: whichever you say? | 20:58 |
| BarkingFish | can you connect wirelessly to your own router, for example, aetas-dk? | 20:58 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: if you can hang on for 2 minutes I will get a password :) | 20:59 |
| BarkingFish | ok, thank you | 20:59 |
| exodus_ms | reisio, i rendered in several different formats using pitivi... avi, ogg and mp4. But I'm asuming those are just containers and not actual file types? | 20:59 |
| * BarkingFish goes to make a coffee while he waits | 20:59 | |

| MrKeuner | xangua, downloaded adobe-flashplugin package from archive.canonical.com not sure if that's the partner repo | 21:05 |
| reisio | exodus_ms: and what's the extension? | 21:05 |
| xangua | MrKeuner: is not | 21:05 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Jay, I can connect to a WPA network :) | 21:05 |
| aschmitz | MrKeuner, Do you have /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so ? | 21:05 |
| xangua | MrKeuner: go to software center and install it from partner repo, or with apt install adobe-flashplugin | 21:06 |
| MrKeuner | aschmitz, I do | 21:06 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: However, It seems to me that Im still unable to create a network that others can connect to | 21:06 |
| aschmitz | Run "file /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so" in the command line. | 21:06 |
| BarkingFish | aetas-dk, Fremragende! | 21:06 |
| aschmitz | Er, MrKeuner: run "file /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so" in the command line. | 21:06 |
| MrKeuner | aschmitz, file claims 64 bit | 21:06 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Er du dansker? | 21:06 |
| aschmitz | Okay. | 21:06 |
| BarkingFish | I have that problem too, the networks I create don't work either, aetas-dk | 21:06 |
| aschmitz | Then it's [almost certainly] the 64-bit version. | 21:06 |
| BarkingFish | no, I'm Icelandic, but I know a very small amount of danish :) | 21:07 |
| mattalexx | What's the best music player for sorting my album artist instead of artist? Guayadeqwue does but it's super buggy. | 21:07 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Okay, so if I want to make my server a hotspot, that would not be possible? | 21:08 |
| aschmitz | mattalexx, Banshee works for me. | 21:08 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: nice! Well your english is excellent! | 21:08 |
| BarkingFish | I don't know, aetas-dk - maybe you could grab someone here with a little more knowledge of it? | 21:08 |
| BarkingFish | It should be, aetas-dk - I've been here 16 years :P | 21:08 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: North Dakota? | 21:09 |
| BarkingFish | I should've mentioned I'm based in the UK, aetas-dk - Milton Keynes, South east england. | 21:09 |
| mattalexx | aschmitz, Banshee's list uses the ARTIST tag, not the ALBUMARTIST tag. | 21:09 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: Well 16 years is a long time ;) ah, well you used an expression very local in Fargo, North Dakota ;) | 21:09 |
| CardinalFang | Hi all. I'm curious. In the Unity panel, some app tiles have a blue background, some golden, some silver, some orange. Why the difference? Is it a sampling of the contained icon? | 21:10 |
| CardinalFang | Or do the tile colors have another meaning? | 21:10 |
| reisio | CardinalFang: you should see a doctor immediately | 21:10 |
| * reisio kids :p | 21:10 | |
| tMH- | cardinalfang: it's a kabbalah'11;) | 21:10 |
| BarkingFish | anyway, since you can connect to secured networks, aetas-dk - the next issue is getting a network you make to allow you to connect. | 21:10 |
| aschmitz | mattalexx, Which list? Certainly I know you can show the album artist as a column and sort by that. I also thought it merged album artists together in the standard artist list, but I'll have to double-check. | 21:10 |
| mattalexx | aschmitz, The browser list at the top. | 21:11 |

| BarkingFish | so you're only using it for one thing at a time, ok. I can't realistically see what would be wrong, other than maybe the wifi in your PC isn't strong enough, you might need an external wifi adapter, like a USB stick | 21:22 |

| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: You could be right, but it should be designed to be able to host wireless connections | 21:26 |
| reisio | Kaleidoscope: well do you have /bin/bash? is config.sub in the parent dir? | 21:26 |
| BarkingFish | I'm just wondering whether having one receiving incoming and one transmitting and receiving is causing the two to interfere, aetas-dk - have you tried running your own on a different channel? | 21:27 |
| Kaleidoscope | Yes, I have bin/bash | 21:29 |
| aetas-dk | BarkingFish: I have tried having the 'Server' as the only setup with wireless activated, then turning other things on, one by one, and trying to connect. Though without luck | 21:29 |
| Kaleidoscope | reisio, and config.sub is indeed in the parent | 21:30 |
| BarkingFish | I'm lost then, aetas-dk - I'm sorry I can't help you with this... Maybe someone here knows more. | 21:30 |

| BarkingFish | dageriv, it should be on a sticker on the bottom of the machine | 21:34 |

| dageriv | BarkingFish: the sticker is removed | 21:35 |

| BarkingFish | go look for a picture of it on google images, dageriv - it may help you somewhat. | 21:36 |

| BarkingFish | I can't think of any other way you'll identify the model without that sticker, unless you can visually match it, dageriv | 21:36 |
| lahcen | hi !! | 21:37 |

| greg3000 | Anyone know how to fix ubuntu so non-root avoid d-bus "failed to contact configuration server" errors? | 22:36 |
| greg3000 | possible solution here: http://www.rootninja.com/fix-gconf-exception-failed-to-contact-configuration-server-with-dbus-launch/ | 22:37 |
| greg3000 | removing ~/.dbus solved it :) | 22:38 |
| mattalexx | running four monitors with Unity? | 22:38 |
| mattalexx | Is anyone here running four monitors with Unity? | 22:39 |
| amechi | Yeah. | 22:39 |
| mattalexx | amechi, Are you speaking to me? | 22:39 |
| amechi | Yes | 22:39 |
| mattalexx | And it works okay? | 22:39 |
| amechi | So far so good | 22:39 |
| slikts | canonical are morons | 22:40 |
| mattalexx | Awesome. Are they all the same size or are they mismatched? | 22:40 |
| amechi | No problems whatsoever, with display as well as switching | 22:40 |
| amechi | Same size. Auto config. Didn't have to do anything extra. | 22:40 |
| mattalexx | amechi, Are they two above, two below? Where is the unity bar? | 22:41 |
| mattalexx | Launcher I mean | 22:41 |
| slikts | I have mumble running in the background, but I can't access it, because its icon is not whitelisted... and my system is borked somehow that the whitelisting doesn't work at all, and I also lack tools like dconf | 22:41 |
| Jean_Paul | hi | 22:42 |
| amechi | Bar on the LHS, displays 2*2 | 22:42 |
| slikts | canonical went out of their way to break all software that has this pattern to hide in tray | 22:42 |
| Jean_Paul | yeay | 22:42 |
| slikts | instead of just adding a down arrow icon to group hidden icons under it | 22:42 |
| Jean_Paul | kacken wollnwa hier | 22:42 |
| th0r | slikts: you going to get around to a question or are you just going to whine | 22:42 |
| Eluveitos | oO | 22:42 |
| Jean_Paul | jajajaaaa | 22:42 |
| Jordan_U | slikts: This channel is for resolving issues, not for simply ranting about them. Please keep your questions respectfull and productive. | 22:42 |
| mattalexx | amechi, What is LHS? | 22:43 |
| mattalexx | amechi, Left High Screen? | 22:43 |
| amechi | Left hand side | 22:43 |
| bindi | hi, i'm trying to install drupal here, and it's saying i need the pdo extension for php. and installing php5-mysql should have done the trick, but it didnt. what now? | 22:43 |
| kamiccolo | Large Hadron Colider? | 22:43 |
| amechi | Sorry, I'll be less ambiguous | 22:43 |
| mattalexx | amechi, Ah, I see. | 22:43 |
| amechi | :) | 22:43 |
| slikts | also, consider this bug canonical shipped unity with: selecting a window from the dock cycles focus | 22:43 |
| mattalexx | amechi, So it spans left side of the left two monitors? | 22:44 |

| mattalexx | amechi, And the Trash is at the bottom of the Lower left screen? | 22:44 |
| slikts | so, if I have two nautilus and click on the icon in the dock, each time its going to focus a different nautilus window, but not even bring it to foreground | 22:44 |
| amechi | Yes it is. | 22:44 |
| MonkeyDust | slikts: wrong channel, please type /j #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:45 |

| Ibis | What's the package name for installing Ubuntu Software center? | 22:47 |
| slikts | okay, what do I do if dconf is missing? | 22:47 |
| slikts | I'm using 11.04 and it's just not there | 22:47 |
| kogie | <bindi>: after installing php5-common and php5-mysql pdo should be there as well / try issuing sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload | 22:47 |
| bindi | kogie: i did | 22:47 |
| slikts | I haven't done anything that I know of to remove dconf | 22:47 |
| bindi | kogie: it isnt. in /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d there is only gd.ini | 22:48 |
| MonkeyDust | slikts: sudo apt-get install dconf | 22:48 |
| Jordan_U | slikts: It looks like dconf is available in the packages "dconf" and "dconf-tools", neither of which are installed by default. Unfortunately I don't know much about dconf myself. | 22:48 |
| mattalexx | amechi, I like it. Especially the way it puts the app's menu into the main windows's top bar. One fell swoop and the UI of every app is instantly less cluttered. I kind of wish that all of the separate features were packaged separately (left bar, menu in the top bar, dock). That is the Linux way, after all: one tool for one job. | 22:49 |
| silverlightning | anyone clever with terminal and reversing a command. I did a pasting error and happen to run this in command after installing medibuntu. sudo sed -e 's/ non-free//' -i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list | 22:49 |
| Jordan_U | silverlightning: Probably easier to just remove the file and follow the directions for adding medibuntu repositories again. | 22:50 |
| bindi | kogie: okay i purged and removed php5-* and reinstalled. pdo is now there, but even i installed php5-gd it's not there :D | 22:50 |
| silverlightning | Jordan_U: remove, how? | 22:50 |
| kogie | then install it manually sudo apt-get install php5-gd | 22:50 |
| mattalexx | amechi, You? | 22:50 |
| slikts | the dconf package I just installed doesn't look right... | 22:51 |
| dtigue | silverlightning: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list should do the trick | 22:51 |
| Jordan_U | silverlightning: sudo rm /etc/apt/medibuntu.list | 22:51 |
| slikts | and it doesn't work | 22:51 |
| bindi | kogie: "but even i installed php5-gd it's not there" .. anyway i forgot to reload apache2 :D | 22:51 |
| kogie | <bindi>: hehe | 22:51 |
| Jordan_U | silverlightning: dtigue had the path right, ignomre my comment :) | 22:51 |
| slikts | I guess I needed dconf-tools | 22:51 |

| slikts | okay, so I now could use dconf-editor to figure out that desktop.unity.panel.systray-whitelist is set to ['all'], yet I see no icons in the notification area | 22:53 |
| Ibis | I thought apt-get reloads apache on it's own. | 22:53 |
| slinzex | how could I mv current mpd playing song? Trying to do something like : mv "/ZERO/Music/`mpc current --format \"%file%\"`" /tmp/ | 22:54 |
| silverlightning | dtigue: Jordan_U cannot remove `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list': No such file or directory ? | 22:54 |
| slikts | Jordan_U, MonkeyDust: thanks for halping, at least one issue is fixed now | 22:54 |
| Jordan_U | slikts: You're welcome. | 22:55 |
| silverlightning | Jordan_U: can it be removed from filemanager? | 22:55 |
| silverlightning | dtigue: maybe I shall have to do a full os reinstall | 22:57 |
| DETERMINOLOGY | Is ubuntu cloud better then dropbox and how do i access cloud if possible? | 22:57 |
| dork | slikts: i don't think you can since mpd has to update it's database to be able to continue playing the file | 22:57 |
| Jordan_U | silverlightning: What were you originally trying to do when you ran that sed command? | 22:57 |
| silverlightning | Jordan_U: installing medibuntu, to get win32 codeks | 22:58 |

| silverlightning | lubuntu 11.10 | 23:01 |
| slinzex | dork, I need absolute path | 23:01 |
| Jordan_U | silverlightning: It seems that you weren't following the instructions well or there were some errors (that should have given error messages). Please start from the beginning reading all the directions carefully and if you get any error messages be sure to save them and ask about them here. | 23:01 |

| sammy | xangua: from partner repo. where as if I was running 32-bit, installing say ubuntu-restricted-extras would handle getting it... im assuming from multiverse? flashplugin-installer? | 23:03 |
| dork | KyleP: you'll have to install gnash | 23:03 |
| KyleP | i tried that. no luck | 23:03 |
| xangua | sammy: flashplugin-installer is not from partner ;) | 23:04 |
| dork | KyleP: no luck as in how, as in you can't watch flash videos? | 23:04 |
| dork | or as in no flash works | 23:04 |
| famgod | dork; already installed same, thing | 23:04 |
| sammy | xangua: so there is no ubuntu distributed 64-bit version of the installer yet. is what I'm going for. since I just told my friend there was ;) | 23:04 |
| xangua | sammy: adobe-flashplugin package is if you want to install it with apt | 23:04 |
| KyleP | dork: yes | 23:04 |
| famgod | kogie; where is apache conf located? | 23:04 |
| slikts | who else uses unity here? | 23:04 |

| dork | KyleP: streaming video won't work on powerpc, at least it didn't the last time i installed it on ppc | 23:04 |

| KyleP | i'm working with the tech team for OCCUPY PHILADELPHIA. and this computer is going to be a public pc which needs to be able to watch stream video from livestream.com and youtube. is there any way to make this happen or should i just reinstall mac osx? | 23:07 |
| sammy | xangua: okay okay I get it. my friend was using sevenmachine's ppa before, I told her she didn't need to because I noticed it was marked depreciated, but I didnt know she had to enable partner. thank you. | 23:07 |
| Jordan_U | slikts: Given that it's the default in Ubuntu 11.04, it's fair to say that many here use it. Not that the factoid also said not to take polls. | 23:07 |

| xangua | https://launchpad.net/~sevenmachines/+archive/flash sammy it even says it in that ppa | 23:07 |
| Jordan_U | slikts: s/not/note/ | 23:07 |
| slikts | Jordan_U: but maybe not so many, considering that no one replied | 23:07 |
| famgod | kogie; theres a 'default and a default-ssl' file in /etc/apache2/sites-available/, they look they are xml files for virtualhosts | 23:07 |
| dtigue | silverlightning: you get all that yet ? | 23:08 |
| zykotick9 | xangua, i don't think any "Flash" version will work with PowerPC | 23:08 |
| zykotick9 | gnash maybe | 23:08 |
| Jordan_U | slikts: Again, this channel is not for taking polls. | 23:08 |
| dork | gnash works on ppc, it will not stream video | 23:08 |
| dork | typically works with old flash content/open flash | 23:08 |
| xangua | zykotick9: well i was not aware of what he is using, you may fell better if you tell him this, not me ;) | 23:08 |
| zykotick9 | xangua, he knows - he was in here with the same issue yesterday | 23:09 |
| silverlightning | dtigue: http://imagebin.org/178576 | 23:09 |
| zykotick9 | dork, "will not" are you sure? | 23:09 |
| dtigue | silverlightning: ok again with this one >> sudo apt-get -q update | 23:09 |

| Ellipsis753 | Hey, I've got a harddrive and it's randomly going read-only sometimes (I think that may be happening only when transmission the torrent program is running?), when this happends I then have to reboot and fsck it. I did a total sector by sector scan of my harddrive to see if it had errors but the manufactuars self-checker didn't detect any problems (and it spent agges scanning). Does anyone have any idea what this co | 23:10 |
| Ellipsis753 | uld be if it's not the harddrive fault or where else I could ask? I'm stuck for what to do next. | 23:10 |
| slikts | but the focus-cycling bug in unity is really amazing, considering how little attention it gets and how bad it is | 23:10 |
| zykotick9 | KyleP, see dork's comment above | 23:10 |
| dtigue | silverlightning: then do >> sudo apt-get install w32codecs libdvdcss2 | 23:10 |
| slikts | somehow canonical manages to ship a ridiculous bug in the core functionality, and somehow most users miss it | 23:11 |
| Jordan_U | Ellipsis753: Next time you fsck keep a log of all of the error messages and file a bug report. | 23:11 |
| silverlightning | dtigue: http://imagebin.org/178577 | 23:11 |
| dtigue | silverlightning: did you do this one ? >> sudo apt-get install w32codecs libdvdcss2 | 23:12 |
| silverlightning | ooh, w32 is comming | 23:12 |
| Ellipsis753 | Jordan_U, Thank you. How could I do this? Also, the standard automatic fsck on boot may already have been logged? Do you know where this could be logged? | 23:12 |
| silverlightning | ; ) | 23:12 |
| dtigue | slinzex: what would that bug be? | 23:12 |
| Gibzak | hi, can't find the way to install netcfg in latest ubuntu release =( any clue ? | 23:12 |
| dtigue | slinzex: nm | 23:12 |
| KM0201 | w32codecs, is installed via medibuntu, and if you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras, and ubuntu-restricted-addons you have it silverlightning | 23:13 |
| Gibzak | the packet is in udeb and I have no idea what to do with it | 23:13 |
| silverlightning | http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | 23:13 |
| KM0201 | silverlightning: what is that for? | 23:14 |
| Jordan_U | Ellipsis753: I believe it would be in /var/log/fsck/checkroot. | 23:14 |
| dtigue | silverlightning: KM0201 is right all you should have to do these days is install ubuntu-restricted-extras and addons, but next time just tell the installer to install all that junk for you | 23:15 |
| Jordan_U | Ellipsis753: Another thing to check would be your RAM. Bad RAM can cause many unexpected problems. To check your RAM boot holding shift to see the grub menu and select the memtest entry. | 23:15 |

| KM0201 | silverlightning: you can install medibuntu, but i don't think thats gonna resolve your issue. (fairly certain it won't) | 23:18 |
| dtigue | silverlightning: you also might need >>> sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer | 23:18 |

| silverlightning | dtigue: back after restart | 23:22 |
| dtigue | tarrant: yes you can install sun-java from the cli | 23:22 |
| itaylor57 | tarrant, java does not use x11 except through swing | 23:23 |
| tarrant | dtigue: what I meant is sun-java relies on sun-java6-fonts and that installs x11 | 23:23 |
| CSyncope | you know how you can "select session" when you're logging in, how do i make a custom one of those? I've been googling for a while | 23:25 |

| Ellipsis753 | Jordan_U, Thank you. That's a good idea. Should I also check the cpu? (although surely this would be very unlikely as it seems to be related to heavy disk usage. You'd expect freezes for cpu wouldn't you?) | 23:25 |
| Jordan_U | Ellipsis753: I seriously doubt that the CPU is an issue. | 23:26 |
| dtigue | Ellipsis753: your issue is not cpu related i wouldn't think | 23:26 |
| dtigue | Ellipsis753: you might try scanning the HDD with IBM's tools as the ones that come on most machines are not very good | 23:26 |

| Ellipsis753 | dtigue, Thank you but I also did the ubuntu disk self-check, I've tried 2 different full checks already so I think it should be ok? | 23:29 |
| Ben64 | Ellipsis753: you should probably buy a new drive | 23:30 |

| droope_ | Hi folks, i've installed ubuntu server at my home PC, and after installing an xfce on it i am using it as my desktop computer ( yeah, i know ). The mic is not working ( tho sound is ) anyone can venture a guess at what i need to install in order for it to work? | 23:37 |
| Krenair | mynotes, install the guest additions | 23:38 |
| Krenair | I think they're called VMWare Tools or something | 23:38 |

| Ben64 | droope_: how did you install xfce | 23:41 |
| droope_ | g0rs: pulseaudio? i've just figured that out, i'm installing it now | 23:41 |
| droope_ | Ben64: apt-get install xfce4 :P | 23:41 |
| Ben64 | well theres your problem | 23:41 |
| g0rs | droope_: yes | 23:41 |
| Ben64 | pulseaudio (usually) is bad | 23:41 |
